9 Agreements for World Gratitude Participants As we envision our emerging world, we feel a Standard of Excellence is vital to our collective success, laying the foundation for harmonious relations. Through experience, we've come to recognize that a standard of personal excellence precedes magic, miracles, serendipity, synchronicity, and personal and global transformation. As stewards of the World Gratitude Gathering, it is our commitment to you, and everyone who participates, to create the space for heaven to shine through, thus reflecting the highest quality experience for everyone involved. We believe that such a space is made possible as we each agree to the following 9 Agreements prior to participation in the World Gratitude Gathering. As a member of the World Gratitude Gathering, I agree to the following: 1. I agree that a world of Love and Gratitude begins with me. I choose to be a conscious mirror and model of the change I wish to see in the world. 2. I agree to consciously set an intention for manifesting something miraculous in my life throughout this process. 3. I agree to tap into Gratitude on a daily basis and as much as possible in every waking moment. I know that the rewards of doing so flow through and extend beyond me, strengthening the collective field of Gratitude from which we may all derive benefit. 4. I agree to be a consistently uplifting inspiration in all my interactions in World Gratitude. I commit to see and mirror back the greatness of each soul who crosses my path. I choose to discover and nurture the light within so that it may shine forth to others and magnify their life. 5. I agree to honor each individual's right to choose their own belief system and life path. 6. I agree to be open to both give and receive within this community. In all my dealings, I seek win-win, mutually edifying interactions and transactions. 7. I agree to be my word in my exchanges with others. I realize that my personal influence is magnified to the degree I am able to keep my word with myself and others. If something comes up and I decide to change what I had agreed upon, then I agree to make that communication as soon as possible to the affected party. 8. I agree to love and enjoy my life as much as possible! 9. And, last but certainly not least, I agree to be Grateful for ME!

Day 1 - WAKE TO DREAM

"Earthquake Rose", image shared by Rachel F. Welcome Beloved, For our 42 Day World Gratitude gathering (and beyond!), let's use the following practice to connect with our world wide family of Gratitude: Focus on Gratitude just before drifting to sleep, and immediately upon awakening. Beyond words, allow this source force energy-in-motion (emotion) to flood each cell in your body, feeling wave after wave of Gratitude, immersing you in an energetic elixir of timeless NOW. Let go, release, and breathe deeply. ahhhhhhh ....... As you drift in and out ... Giving and receiving ... Pure Gratitude for NOW. Forget wondering how long is long enough - for Gratitude IS. As our gathering is World Wide, this practice will create a daily wave of Gratitude rolling through hearts and minds alike. Beyond a static time, flowing with our natural rhythms, a unified connection through Gratitude will open and close each day.

Here - we meet as One, in Love - with Gratitude. Plus! This practice will flood our bodies with serotonin and dopamine, assisting our ability to sustain a state of peace, relaxation and present moment awareness. This discipline may be the simplest, easiest most effective means of co-creating change through Gratitude. Why? Moving from sleep to waking, waking to sleep, is a state change ... a phase transition. Using Gratitude One by One, to move through a state change, we will charge our collective consciousness with this energetic pattern - effecting a global shift as we vacillate between here and NOW. WOW! *** " ... sudden transitions hold the key to a deep question about how nature works, of equal interest to scientists and philosophers alike: How does order emerge from disorder? ... Right at the transition point the system is poised to choose between these two phases, like a climber on a crest choosing which side to go down. Undecided which way to go, the system frequently goes back and forth, it's vacillations increasing near the critical point. ... In the vicinity of the critical point we need to stop viewing atoms (US) separately. Rather they should be considered communities that act in unison. Atoms must be replaced by boxes of atoms, such that within each box all atoms behave as one." ~ Linked, by Albert-Laszlo Barabasi

Day 2 - HEART OF WATER

* artwork gifted by Elizabeth Yelland* Welcome Beloved One-ness, Today, let's begin within and bless all the waters in our body. You see, as our blessed Heart beats true with Love and Gratitude, waters will begin to mirror Divinity within, creating ripples of time, expressing Life sublime while thoughts projecting inner reflections serve to create Now. So just imagine ... By flooding our bodily waters with Love and Gratitude, graceful waves will ripple into all of creation, e-motionally projecting a super-charged vibration, allowing intended manifestations to BE. Give thanks, for it IS so! As you feel complete within, imagine this blessed beat flowing lovingly through others, and on to all the waters of Earth. Feel grateful knowing Yes! you are this powerful, connected and Divine. Now, as a co-creator of World Gratitude, it's time to set an intention ~ one you wish to see come into being ... uniquely suited to serve your highest good, and that of others, too. Create a vivid image of this with your imagination. Feel its presence, hear its gift, taste its treasure and see its depth and magnificence. Love this intention as it IS Now. Give thanks, in advance, for its manifestation while allowing the Law of Attraction to deliver this intended creation with grace, style and ease.

Perhaps you will wish to share this in the FORUM, allowing others to magnify and accelerate the arrival of this possibility. You may also choose to record it in a journal, online or written, or ... simply close your eyes and breathe in the intention and breath out the manifestation. Be true to what feels right for you, and all will manifest through Love and Gratitude! *** Go Gratitude! *** "What happens if you ... allow this charged water (intention) to constantly evaporate (breathe) into the atmosphere where it will interact and proliferate with all the other water molecules? Now, people and other life forms, would be breathing in air which, of course, contains moisture or water molecules that have been energetically charged with our positive concepts, which in turn would affect all the water within their bodies and so on - thus affecting the entire planet. If we (are yet) to achieve the "no-mind" state of being attributed to the enlightened few, why not by-pass the whole thought process altogether and let the water do much of the work for us, while we continue to work on ourselves? This would allow us to work on ourselves from the inside out and the outside in while simultaneously slowly influencing progress in the masses." - The Puzzle Pieces, submitted by D. Freeman. "It is during our time, through managing our choices, that we are invited to create an outer world that mirrors our inner most prayers and dreams." ~ Gregg Braden, The Isaiah Effect ************************************************

Day 3 - GATHERING MASTERS

artwork source: spiritus sanctus Greetings Gratitude Masters, Today, consider twelve people who have profoundly influenced and inspired you ... be these friends, family, authors, explorers, artists or leaders ... remember, these may be any number of INFINITE possibilities. Call to them with your heart, giving thanks for their presence in your life, sending a wave of energetic appreciation their way. Now, emotionally invite these Masters to guide you through these 42 days of World Gratitude - energetically connecting to their wisdom, example and experience - in order to form a circle of support, intimately familiar to YOU, that will ultimately serve everyone at World Gratitude. By giving thanks to, connecting with and inviting in these powerfully influential beings, our gathering exponentially shifts, our affinity range expands, and our collective field of consciousness is flooded as we re-awaken to the power of full-spectrum living - Universal Humans, infinitely connected to One Source, One Love, One NOW. As you choose ... spend some time reflecting on the Wheel of Transformation asking: ~What areas are represented by their influence? ~What are your current areas of strength?

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

11

~Where might you choose to grow, expand, and integrate (k)new areas of awareness? ~Who will arrive to assist in this process? ~How will you prepare for arriving guidance?

* Concept by Barbara Marx Hubbard * * Artwork by Carol H. Grey * Congratulations - our three days of preparation are complete. Remember, throughout the 42 days of World Gratitude (and beyond!), intentionally focus on Gratitude as you Wake to Dream and Drift to Sleep, continually holding a silent prayer in your heart, blessings all bodies of water with your Love and Gratitude. Just imagine where we will be when we reach Day 43! *** 26 Gemini, The Angels of . . . Spiritual Families Beloved, "Ye must be born again." We teach and inspire those who have experienced rebirth into spiritual awareness, the "second birth". In utero and infancy, the Delta brainwave state of pure being and oneness with Divine Consciousness and Life and unity with all Creation is natural, effortless, and dominant. Spiritual awareness requires regaining this deep brainwave state of 0 to 4 oscillations per second, so that pure being and unity with Divine Consciousness

and Creation is experienced as the ground of being in everyday life. In this deep brainwave state, complete safety and timelessness are experienced, the body is alkaline, and omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience are accessible. We keep these spiritual families (in Gratitude) so that a state of complete safety is maintained, allowing the deep delta brainwave state to continue without interruption. Therefore we guide them to form ... societies or families for the purpose of co-creating, knowing, feeling, and manifesting in form, the splendor and majesty of Divine Life together. "Build your house upon a rock." The other brainwave patterns are built upon this delta brainwave foundation and flow from it. These are deep inner divine thought or Theta brainwaves, pure flowing divine feelings or Alpha brainwaves, and divine logic, memory, and sensation of the Beta brainwave state. We carefully guide Children of Light and Love who have been reborn in this way into spiritual families and communities that nurture the Divine Kingdom. "On Earth as it is in Heaven." Through resonance and art, these individuals and families guide others into full awakening. Divine Patterns are recursive embedded fractals. This means that every Divine Pattern is repeated over and over again, in ever larger sizes, into infinity, according to precise mathematical formulas. It is for this reason that an atom looks like a solar system and that it has been written that each Child of Light is made in the image and likeness of The Divine. "As above, so below." However, even though fractals are similar, each one has unique features. Everything in Creation that is an expression of Divine Consciousness and Feeling is therefore individual and one of a kind. This is a most important polarity: sameness and uniqueness. Therefore, the ONE BEING expresses through Universal Life which is made up of many continuum's that express polarities. ~ spiritus sanctus, www.spiritussanctus.com

Day 4 - BIRTH OF GRATITUDE Allow Gratitude to guide you through NOW to the moment of your conception, your earthly Being-ness. As you journey through to the beginning of YOU let Gratitude be your guide, remembering a state of perfection, purity, and one-ness with Source. One might be surprised to realize how many times the physical body re-creates itself through Gratitude. So it IS with our energetic, intellectual, and spiritual Selves, too.

You're beautiful, baby! *** Go Gratitude! *** Imagine this Beloved Union happyning within YOU - one beating true with Love and Gratitude. Feel this pure state of emerging Life bridging here with NOW, rebirthing you, US, everyone into a state of Grace through Gratitude. YOU being YOU being Gratitude - who (k)new?!?! *** Conception: Two cells merge, form a ‘vesica Pisces’ – a deeply sacred shape where the centers, of two spheres or circles, bisect each other. Next sperm and ova pass right through each other to become a single cell or zygote. Then: mitosis and the chromosomes join, then migrate to North and South poles.

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

14

Then a tube forms pole to pole and the chromosomes split and migrate to alternate poles. This is the complete prototype new human. The zygote then splits into four cells and forms a tetrahedron inside a sphere. The next division yields a star tetrahedron/cube in a shape called ‘the egg of life’. These eight cells reside at the perineum – our centre (geometrically) and literally where we grow from. And an important esoteric plexus, besides, on which our energy field fixates. Anyway, eight cells divide into eight more, form a cube within a cube. After this, divisions become asymmetrical as we differentiate in all the tiny special little ways that make us, well, special! At sixty-four cells the embryo becomes hollowed, and the poles grow together to form a tube torus, one end of which will be the mouth, the other, the anus. So, to sum up: life begins as an ovum or sphere, becomes a tetrahedron, then a star tetrahedron, a cube, another sphere, and finally, a torus. (note: the symbol of Gratitude is a tube torus, too! wow!) http://www.baliadvertiser.biz/articles/spiritual/2003/metatrons.html ****************************************************

Day 5 - (K)NEW BREATH OF YOU

Imagine ... As (k)newly born beings, we begin by first receiving, accepting a naturally abundant source of support ~ the Breath of Life ~ only to immediately return this gift ... and then begin again. Give and Receive Accept and Release In and Out Beginning to End Our breath is a constant companion, guide, and connection to Life. So it is, too, with Gratitude! *** Go Gratitude! *** Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

16

Now ... breathe deeply, as if this is the One, the beginning, the first breath connecting You to Now. Upon release, imagine a state of purity returning to all creation - this breath imbued with innocence, Divinity, and Gratitude, gifted to all by a (k)newly born YOU *** Gratitude Breath Meditation Fill your heart with compassion and gratitude by practicing this simple meditation. Begin by inhaling deeply through the nose and exhaling completely through the mouth; then, inhale through the mouth and exhale completely through the nose. As you proceed, meditate on the mantra Saat Naam (True dentity). ~ source: Yogi Tea

Day 6 - CUP OF LIFE

image source: D. Freeman, 'The Puzzle Pieces' Life is a series of streaming Koans. So, once and for all, let's settle this one: Whether it be half empty or full ... Let's always give thanks for the CUP. As for the ebb and flow - the rise and fall the come and go that affects us all, consider this:

18

Without spilling, drinking, tipping or sipping, there is no room for NOW to fill you UP. C? *** Go Gratitude! *** Remember ~ the cup is YOU ~ Gratitude is the give and receive, the drink and the pour, a space for Love to be less IS more. Ahhhhh ... refreshing, indeed! *** Inside or outside yourself, you never have to change what you see, only the way you see it. ~ Thaddeus Golas *** Here are a few suggestions on ways to imbue your daily beverages with Gratitude: 1) Write 'Love and Gratitude', with a permanent marker on your favorite cup, mug, or glass. Each time you fill it, feel your energy flowing through, re-arranging the waters to serve your highest good. You may also choose to do this with your hot water heater, coffee pots, water jugs, your car battery (!) ... any container! 2) Print out the Chi energy accumulator image, laminate it, (or some other form of water-protection) and place beverage containers on it. You see,water's natural crystal pattern forms a hexagon, accumulating life force energy when placed on top of a hexagonal matrix based on the law of sympathetic resonance and harmonic vibration. (source: D. Freeman, 'The Puzzle Pieces') 3) Share your method of blessing water with Love and Gratitude: _________________________________ **************************************************

Day 7 - LOVE, RESPECT, GRATITUDE

Emoto's Love and Gratitude Water Crystal Daily Self-Love, Self-Respect and Self-Gratitude will re-arrange watery worlds within ... opening space for peace to BE, intentions to manifest and abundance to freely flow. Consider using this simple method of blessing bodily waters, as suggested by Dr. Emoto: Water, I Love You. Water, I Thank You. Water, I Respect You. Now, consider replacing "water" with your name to enhance the exchange of Love, Respect and Gratitude. Remember ... as you clear waters within, prepare for a rush of old junk, gunk and out-of-Now materials to be released. The best method for gracefully moving through past time to get to the (k)new? Love, Respect, and Gratitude! Always and all ways! *** Go Gratitude! *** Highly inspiring, sacred and evocative, especially when sung to a melody written by Shanti Shivani, is this water blessing offered by Dr. Emoto's 104 year old mentor. We were blessed to sing this with Dr. Emoto in Seattle, WA. Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

And are Now honored to share it with you. Enjoy! *u chuu no* *mugen no* *chikara ga* *korikotte* (universe) (eternal) (energy) (crystallized) *makoto no* *daiwa no* *miyo ga* *narinatta* (true) (great harmony) ( era) (has come) ... *** "In the New Earth, you will ... develop that sense of gratitude and commitment to your creations, for the need to keep creating and re-creating does not allow you the time to enjoy your creations and reflect on who you are through your creations. Indeed, time is of the essence in the New Earth: Time to "be" and enjoy; Time to be still and to reflect. For the stiller and calmer you are, the more gratitude and respect you show, the higher your internal vibrations will be, and the more at ease you will feel in the New Earth. And so, the expression of gratitude is the key to the Flows of Time … not only expressing, but also feeling that gratitude, as you stand at your point of power within Infinity, the Master of both Past and Future. But the point of Mastery is Gratitude and Joy! And if you are deeply unhappy with your creations, then you will need to see where you have created from ideas and desires that no longer align with who you are. And when you find that point, just let go and release. Forgive yourself and then express gratitude for that point of learning and what it gave you - and then be ready to align with perceptions that are more aligned with how you sense yourself to be! Remember, dearest souls, that wherever you are, you have created this from your desires in the past. Express gratitude for the past, and then allow yourself to begin dreaming yourself in a new and more powerful way. Take the best and the most powerful from your past, and dream according to that."

Day 8 - HUGGING YOURSELF IN GRATITUDE

Open your arms ever so wide. then lovingly wrap them round your front side and HUG, HUG, HUG yourself. Gently sway from left to right, caressing the body with adoring pride, squeezing, pleasing, and joyfully teasing this earth suit holding YOU. Now, imagine looking down from above ...

Yes! It's you hugging you in Gratitude with Love!

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

22

*** Go Gratitude! *** Now that you've wrapped yourself in Gratitude, extend this gift to others, too! Next time you do - open your heart, creating a portal for your Love and Gratitude to flow through, intentionally sending gentle waves to warm, comfort and connect on every level. You will feel the difference - and others will, too! Beware! You might find others getting in line as Word gets round you are the best hugger in town! *** "Inside my heart I visualize ever increasing waves of light which eventually come closer and closer together until it is a mass of white light energy. When I am ready I open my arms and aim the energies that have built up to my beloved Twin Flame. As I open my arms I then draw them back to me as if embracing her in a HUG. How it expanded! This time as I did it I was asked to slow the image down so that I could observe what was happening before it gets to her. This time I repeated the ritual and I watched the waves of energy as they left my heart. I saw them moving out into the universe and what I then saw surprised and amazed me at the same time. I could see multitudes of beings absorbing these waves, this loving embrace and it was being received in joy and magnified/multiplied before it was being sent out. First of all it was being sent to Mother Earth and as she absorbed it she sent it out to her surface, offering it to all beings upon her. It then reflected back out into a multitude of universes. I was dumbstruck at the beauty of what was unfolding in my hearts eye. I had tears of Love and Gratitude rolling down my face as the enormity and the results of this simple little hug had created."

Rassouli Make a right-handed fist ... now cup this curled grip with your left fist and voila!

Gratitude in the palm of your hands. Both give and receive, our hands serve to support, create, soothe and administrate Life. Energetically - our left is receive and our right, Give. Now that you've got Gratitude in your grasp, let's expand this Gratitude and connect with other's hands ... Open your left hand, palm facing up. Open your right hand, palm facing down. Imagine Love and Light flowing through you, in through the left -out through the right. Lifting your hands to heart level, feel a shift as you imagine others on each side of you, hands connected in a growing circle of Gratitude. Allow this energetic river to pulse, play and wind it's way, encircling the Earth as we all say, "Thank you for being YOU. In Love and Gratitude, Me." ***

Day 11 - ENTOPIC GRATITUDE

Ready to create ecstatic change, blissfully spinning into a trance-like state? Simply focus on Gratitude. You see ... spirals, circles, dots and grids are all geometric signals of a happyning shift ~ as seen by the minds eye~ entopic forms transporting us beyond the norm to worlds of wonder, bliss, ecstasy and JOY all present within YOU opening through this symbol of Gratitude. *** Go Gratitude! *** Remember ~ our heavens dance in circles and spirals, from the smallest atoms to the grandest galaxies. So it is, too, with you as Gratitude. *** "At one time alphabets were based and related to "shape-forms." Some of the earliest examples of linear symbols in Europe were found in Magdalenian cave sites (12,000-17,000 years before the present time).

28

There is also a skull discovered at Mezhirich in the Ukraine, painted with tiver (red ochre) that dates from 14,000 years ago. These identifiable symbols are still recognizable today. They include the runes, the cross, the swastika and many religious and magical sigils. Why the need for these symbols? You see, they were based on the notion of entopic forms. Entopic forms are those forms seen when the eyes are shut. Theories abound, but one thing is clear. Neurophysiology has identified phosphenes, geometric shapes and images embedded in our subconscious. These are lodged within our visual cortex and neural system. When one's consciousness has been altered, these forms are produced. They are universal in nature so it matters not from what country, educational background or supposed religious elitism one finds themselves believing in. These entopic forms used in meditation are for one thing only ... They were used to induce trance to help us find our way home." ~ source: sci-forums *****************************************

So let's consider a (k)new view, that perhaps the heart of the earth is YOU. Here we GO ... simply move the first to last, like this: (H)EART to EART(H) worlds within worlds, micro to macro ~ AlphaOmega ~ begin as end - we are connected as ONE. *** Go Gratitude! *** Just imagine ... It's simply a matter of changing views, as Gratitude reveals (k)new worlds within YOU. ***

Day 13 - EYE AM GRATITUDE

*image ~ Stacey Robyn. "Eye Love you, Alex" 2005

Upon arrival in physical time we daily change, re-arranging shape, form, and feature ... our bodies growing by divine design to support our wishes, dreams, and adventures supreme. Now consider this - from birth on, all dimensions change in our physical frames ~ all except One ... The EYE. From first blink to final wink this window of time remains one size offering a steady view of timely Life. Why? In order to re-member this: It's what you choose to see that changes, rather than just the view. *** Go Gratitude! *** So how to re-view life as a child, trusting, open and pure?

32

Ready ... Blink. Now Open your eyes prepared to (k)newly view life through the eyes of Gratitude. *** While our eyes remain the same size, the muscles used to alter our view are continually in a state of change, actively assisting our shifting gaze. Here is a fabulous exercise to strengthen eye muscles, overcoming possible atrophy caused by staring at fixed distances - such as computer screens and other things. Consider using one or more exercises a day to maintain healthy eye muscles. 1) stare at the tip of your nose. next, move your gaze to 15 feet in front f you. Now, extend your view to infinity ~ as far as you can see. Now move back and forth, through each stage 12 x's. 2) Look up at the 12 o'clock position. Now look at three o'clock, six, nine and back to twelve. hold each station for about three seconds, moving round the clock three times. Now reverse the flow, going back in time ... three spins round you go! 3) Make the symbol of Gratitude, beginning within moving out and around to complete the form. Now reverse this spin, moving within to center you view in Gratitude ... repeat 'til you feel complete. ********************************************

Day 14 - SOLE GRATITUDE

*artwork by Douglas Blair - "Barefoot in the rain"* Our bodies are animated earth, embracing Love's light. Our feet ~ the seat of under-standing and platforms for graceful landing ~ give us the ability to quickly shift, to raise our view, to travel, dance, and explore the (k)new. Just for today ... Consider directly connecting feet to earth, grounding yourself in Gratitude. As you do, imagine a vortex of light flowing through your soles to the center of the Earth.

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

34

Now witness this flow returning to you, sole-fully connecting all who stand as Gratitude. *** Go Gratitude! *** Remember, our feet represent our under-standing, our ability to perceive the wisdom of the journey ~ this, too, is the gift of Gratitude. Now, openly ask yourself: What great feats have your feet greeted, too? What (k)new wisdom will your soul/soles lead you to? What truths are hidden just under the surface, supporting waking dreams, delivering you to your purpose? *** Olivier Manitara shares this on Gratitude: Stand in living nature, between the earth and the sky. Feel the earth under your feet; feel how the earth carries you and holds you up. Feel the infinite sky above you; it inspires, straightens, and elevates you. In the sky, think of the origin of your spirit and of your intelligence. In the sky, think of the origin of your eternal soul, of the higher universal consciousness. In the earth, think of the origin of your terrestrial soul, of your individual consciousness. Feel yourself as a living union of the forces of the sky and the earth, of the infinite and the development. Kneel on the ground, and with your right hand, dig a little hole in the earth. Put your hands together in front of the center of your chest (mystical heart), in the sign of prayer and inner union with heaven and earth within you. In this sacred posture, let a beautiful light, a force, a presence of the heaven flow through you: the omnipresence of the Father of all living beings. You can imagine a diamond light, transparent like pure water. Bend down with love before Mother Earth, and place your hands around the little hole. Bend down completely so that your mouth is laid on your hands.

Offer then by your word the "thank you" of heaven to Mother Earth; offer also the "thank you" of your heart, and, through it, the "thank you" of the heart of humanity. source: http://www.essenespirit.com/gratitude.html

Day 15 - THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU

Just for today: Thank you for being YOU. Fully, completely, ever-so-sweetly let this flow of Love and Gratitude permeate every nano-aspect of the Divine being called You. In every way possible, spend today giving thanks to you ... Remember, as you do, you are setting a pattern for others to follow, too. *** Go Gratitude! *** To expand and magnify this exercise:

37

Imagine yourself as a newborn, an infant, a child, teen, young adult ~ and so on ~ until you connect all with Now. At each stage, give thanks for your unique-ness, talents, and timely experiences. Allow all aspects of you to come together, as One in Love and Gratitude.

Day 16 - SYNTROPIC GRATITUDE

*source ~ www.the-arcturians.com*

Greetings Beloveds, Today marks our evolution beyond personal to communal Gratitude. Congratulations! and Thank you for your presence on this amazing journey! For the past 12 days our primary focus has been on Self, creating a greater connection to what IS, allowing our Love to BE and granting Gratitude the power to lead in a universal, yet personal way. As we develop a strong sense of Self Gratitude, this Source Force energy will, by nature of Syntropy, call order to chaos, re-creating our present-day civilizations into a harmonious gathering of Love as Light. What is Syntropy? This word, coined by Luigi Fantappié in 1942, is defined as such: "A tendency towards order and symmetrical combinations, designs of ever more advantageous and orderly patterns. Evolutionary cooperation." This is exactly what we are witnessing Now - our collective consciousness waking to our innate co-creative abilities - in a magnificent mandalic precession of manifested miracles. Wow! From an energetic standpoint, just imagine what our growing Field of Gratitude looks like, as each one of us stands as a point of Light, a being of Love, as waking Gratitude? *** Go Gratitude! ***

Consider this - You are the "see'd" at the heart of Gratitude, the community is the spiral expanding, exploring and expressing Love as Life. As each of us moves through this geometric spin, it creates fractals, waves of creation - a (k)new world evolving through syntropy in order to Divinely BE. What a sight to see! *** "We are no longer small, emotionally reactive human beings with problems and issues to solve. Instead we are becoming creational source beings who share a dance with Life, who seek the very best in ourselves and others, who invent a new reality by loving it passionately and powerfully into being."

Day 17 - 42 WITH FORTITUDE

*image courtesy Ray Rankin* As we spiral out, beyond the Self, to co-create with others, what virtue enhances this syntropic journey, allowing us to manifest increasingly complex, harmonious structures that support our dreams and passionate pursuits? ... While gracefully moving through daily challenges, as we change and re-arrange our reality? In essence: What keeps YOU true to YOU, while co-creating through Gratitude? Fortitude. You see, Fortitude, defined as "constancy under difficulty", is Gratitude in action. This is what keeps us true to our selves, following Divine inner virtues, while serving both Self and our growing family of Gratitude. Why is fortitude such a powerful gift? Simply this: Fortitude is what turns our hearts to Gratitude in times of challenge. Foritude is our strength, commitment, and dedication to co-creating a world waking to the power of Love in Gratitude. *** Go Gratitude! *** What creates Fortitude? Daily practice. Hmmm ... Coincidence our gathering is 42 days in length ... 42 = Fortitude? Perhaps! ... Certainly a (k)new confirmation our timing is Divine, our efforts sublime and all is well, all IS well.

*** "God, Goddess, Divine Spirit of all there is, we thank you for this opportunity to gather together in one another's company. We thank you for the light you bring to this family gathering. Please grant us the vision to see the highest in one another, and grant us the opportunity to continue to be there for each other in good times, as well as not-sogreat-times. Give us strength and fortitude to ride the tides of change, and empower us always to be nurturing and loving with one another. Open our spiritual eyes that we may see one another for who we truly are... and love one other in the same spirit. May sadness, disappointment and anger be minimal; may happiness, positive thoughts and good experiences together be bountiful. May we always cope, and hope, with each other... with Grace." ~ Rev.

Day 18 - FOR GIVING LOVE

album cover: Artful touch Love with Gratitude Gratitude opens the way to forgive-ness - allowing our heart and mind to receive wisdom and experience release while letting go of timely attachments, expectations, or percieved notions on how life could-would-should be. Just for today, ask yourself: Are there any grievances I have yet to resolve? Am I yet to forgive another person, or myself? As so, allow these memories to surface. With Gratitude, give thanks for their presence, lovingly asking, "What is the gift of this experience? What hidden wisdom is ready to be revealed?" As this gift is received and accepted by you, clear, seal and heal the experience by using this mantra: I AM For Giving LOVE with GRATITUDE. *** Go Gratitude! *** Forgiving LOVE For Giving LOVE ... a (k)new perspective, as seen through the eyes of Gratitude! ***

Emotions really are only indicators of the vibrational state you are choosing to express, and by awareness of the variations in the inner comfort you feel, you will recognize their value. Your state of happiness at all times is determined by the choices you are making, and you can enjoy a lighter level of consciousness, either by choosing a brighter emotion, or by viewing yourself in a more positive light. Thus a sure method for invoking the highest emotion of joy, is to deliberately choose to either see yourself as the Divine being of Intelligent Love that you are, or to feel genuine gratitude for whatever the situation offers. The quality of your living is always a product of the choices you are continually making moment by moment. It follows then, that as you practice looking beyond appearances and express feelings of love, kindness and gratitude, you will enjoy immediate benefits of joy and well-being that are highly therapeutic, not only for yourself, but for our whole body. That kind of emotional attitude is a proven and enjoyable way of maintaining optimum heath patterns in both your mind and body. An excellent exercise to ensure your own inner peace, is to examine your consciousness for all embedded grievances, and dissolve them one by one with forgiveness. ~ Paul LeBaron http://www.mrdynastyempire.org/email-THE-FIELD.htm

Day 19 - GAZE WITH GRATITUDE

*Dr. Michael Schlosser*, photo by Cynthia Rose Schlosser ... a pure feeling of Love and Gratitude flows thru this image, an example worthy of emulation. Just for today: Connect eye to eye with another while expressing Gratitude. This opens a direct channel between each heart through the eyes, allowing truth to flow easily between you, charging energetic pathways with current possibilities ~ and creating a sacred moment as each recognizes, reflects and returns flowing expressions of Love and Gratitude. To experience yet another level, let go of saying words. Simply direct your energy, projecting Gratitude as light-in-action, through your gaze, body gestures, and emotions. Be fully present to note and appreciate how others receive and return this silently spoken message of Love and Gratitude. Pay special attention to how this feels to you. Remember: Conversations/possibilities/opportunities may arise and surprise as you gaze-a-way in Gratitude. Keep what's worth keeping and return the rest to Love. Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

*** Go Gratitude! *** Pay special attention to children when practicing this activity. You will find delighted amazement and brightened faces as you grace these young hearts with your Love and Gratitude gazes. *** When you are grateful, your heart is open -- open towards others, open for surprise. In the days since the Wake-up Call we have seen remarkable examples of this openness: strangers helping strangers often in heroic ways. Others turn away, isolate themselves, dare even less than at other times to look at each other. Violence begins with isolation. Break this pattern. Make contact with people whom you normally ignore -- eyecontact at least -- with the agent at the toll booth, the parking lot attendant, someone on the elevator. Look a stranger in the eyes today and realize that there are no strangers. You can feel either grateful or alienated, but never both at the same time. Gratefulness drives out alienation; there is not room for both in the same heart. When you are grateful you know that you belong to a network of give-and-take and you say "yes" to that belonging. This "yes" is the essence of love. You need no words to express it; a smile will do to put your "yes" into action. Don't let it matter to you whether or not the other one smiles back. Give someone an unexpected smile today and so contribute your share to peace on earth. ~ David Steindl-Rast, www.gratefulness.org

Day 20 - ROOTED IN GRATITUDE

* source ~ unknown* Consider ... Just as Gratitude is give and receive, so it is, too, with trees. These grow both up and down (branch and root), continually exchange water, ground us in the NOW and offer comfort, protection, and a daily changing view. Just for today : Let's give thanks for our arboreal friends, their verdant presence and watery essence as living, loving messengers of time. Look around for a nearby tree. Breathe deeply it's vibrant nature. Take a moment to appreciate it's unique-ness, stage of growth, and continual state of change ... as well as it's subtle way of mirroring the symbol of Gratitude, like this:

Day 21 - COMING H(OM)E

* image by Daniel B. Holeman* Home is our sacred place of rest, relaxation, and peaceful-ness.Existing on many planes ~ in our hearts, as daily living space, our Beloved planet Earth, as well as Source-God-Creator ~ home is wherever we are. At the heart of H(OM)E is OM, the universal sound of Gratitude. Expressed by toning (sounding), a state of peace is achieved as One let's go ... releasing all distraction and illusion of separation. Imagine ... By expressing our Gratitude (OM), we create peace at home - near and far, within and without - for all to live and love as One. Listen! Do you hear it? Peace is quietly advising, "Hey Love, I'm coming H(OM)E!" *** Go Gratitude! ***

49

Just for today: Let's call our soldiers home - the splintered aspects of ourselves enlisted to guard and protect our delicate nature, sacred space and sovereign rights as Divine beings. With our hearts, send forth a prayer of peace: "Our time of forgetting is passed, and we remember all as One." It is time to lay down our defenses, to declare peace in our hearts, and it will be so in our Lands, as well. *** The universal sound of attraction is Ah (as in God, Allah, Jehovah). The universal sound of gratitude is Om. These sounds are sung on one note (this is also called "toning"). Technically speaking, Ah is sung for 20 minutes in the morning and Om for 20 minutes in the evening (the most powerful times being sunrise and sunset) and right before bed sing "shalom" which is the combination of the two. However, any amount of time toning is great, and you can even do this in the car while commuting. A clear intention is all that is required. My favorite way to meditate is lying down, and if I fall asleep, it's all that much better! In my case, I discovered that I'd sing Ah in the morning and forget to sing Om at night. Then I'd feel a bit guilty for forgetting to be grateful! So I devised my own system where I'd sing Ah and Om on the same breath so I'd be guaranteed to accomplish attraction and gratitude all at once! (That may not be technically correct, but the Universe ALWAYS understands our intentions.) ~ http://www.heathermacauley.com/toning-meditation.htm For those (k)new to toning with OM, here is a great introduction and guide. enjoy! http://swamij.com/om-mantra.htm ************************************************

Day 22 - ABUNDANCE AS CURRENT-SEE

*artwork by Frank Riccio for Cafe Gratitude* Consider this: Abundance = currency = current see Giving thanks for that which you currently "see" sets a pattern, allowing the Law of attraction to create a way for you to receive all you believe possible. Just for today: Peacefully focus to what IS, giving thanks for current resources, surroundings, companionship, opportunities, silence and sound. As you feel "in the flow", Gratitude glowing within, shift to a space of intentional creation. Allow your heart to manifest an optimum pathway, a vision leading you through intended experiences filled with bliss and joy. You may choose to lend your voice to this process, toning Ah-Om as you visualize, emotionally appreciate and intellectually assimilate your intended manifestation. (remember: Ah = Attraction, Om = Gratitude)

51

As you enter this state of intentional manifestation, allow Gratitude to be your guide, continually shifting focus to appreciate an abundance of currency you are able to currently see! *** Go Gratitude! *** The above exercise utilizes all four brainwave patterns, creating a unified field in sync with your highest good, and that of others, too. Consider using this daily to flow beyond attitude to aptitude of Gratitude! For reference, these four brainwave patterns are: Beta = Senses and Logic Alpha = Flowing Emotions Theta = Intellectual or conceptual Delta = Unified Intent ***

Day 23 - FULL SPECTRUM INTENTION

*art by Bruce Harman - Rainbow Heart* Rainbows ~ full spectrum visualizations of watery manifestations bridging earth and sky right before our very eyes. Rainbows offer a sensory confirmation that change is in the air, using present elements to create a shift in perspective - full spectrum, that is. So it is with manifesting intentions. By shining our light (attention, intention) through water (our bodies being 70% water, brain 85%) an arc connects all that IS with all that may BE. What is this arc, this connection, this bridge? Simply this: Intention Intention bridges emotion with possibility. Like a rainbow ~ arcing through watery time, bending Light to reflect colors sublime ~ our intentions bridge heaven and earth ... connecting emotion with matter, possibility with manifestation. Gratitude is our presence, witness and acceptance of this gift.

*** Go Gratitude! *** In Gratitude we stand with this Bridge of Light, a prism revealing the colors of white in remembrance - We are One as living Love. Remember - One may wait for rainbows to arrive, or intentionally create one by spraying water into Light. Either way you choose ~ relax, enjoy and revel in the wonder of these watery hues. oh, and check this out: Light reflects off water at a 42 degree angle to create a rainbow ~ 42 Days of Gratitude? Full Spectrum manifestation. Whohooooo! *** Spectrum of Intentions by Matt Kahn: It was during an afternoon discussion with the Guides that an idea came to mind. We’d been discussing the idea of intention and how its effect on one’s life is accessing the sacred practice of manifestation. I began thinking, “If manifestation is the ability to practice living in the feeling of a future reality, so we become the magnet attracting it into the present moment, intention must be the bridge that (returns) us to this mindset on a daily basis.” ... Life is merely a manifestation, playing out into form the emotions you feel most often. I humbly offer you this gift from the Universe, so that your focus of emotional freedom may allow you the chance to create the world you’ve been waiting to see. Using “The Spectrum of Intention,” you can step-by- step expand your consciousness by allowing your focus to change, which then changes how you are feeling in the moment. I recommend using each line as a daily theme of what you are intending to focus on, so the forces of Universal harmony may gift you with the joy that has always been waiting for you in the spaces of today. Spectrum of Intentions: As long as I am breathing, I will always be alive. As long as I am alive, I will always be evolving. As long as I am evolving, I will always be changing. As long as I am changing, I will always be conscious. As long as I am conscious, I will always be deliberate. As long as I am deliberate, I will always be intentional. As long as I am intentional, I will always be focused.

Day 24 - CHEWS GRATITUDE

* kirlian photo of an apple - source unknown* Just for today: As you prepare to eat of earthly treats ~ be it morning, noon, or night ~ intentionally project Love and Gratitude to bless and perfect your food. *** Go Gratitude! *** Whole fruits and vegetables are high-water content - containing anywhere between 65% (potatoes and yams) to 95% (watermelons). As water reflects our intentions, changing its crystalline structure - so, too, do the waters in our foods - creating a meal in harmony with the body, and in resonance with the highest good of all. Consider this:

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

57

Plant life emits an energetic signature, as shown above in the Kirlian photograph of an apple. Imbuing our food with Love and Gratitude opens a gateway, connecting our physical bodies (earth, water, fire, wind) with Source, amplifying currently available stores of energy to uplift, nourish and strengthen our bodies. Returning waves of appreciation also roll through every heart and hand that tilled, planted, and harvested the Land ... as well as confirming to the Mother plant it's offspring are well-received ~ encouraging a continuous bounty and abundant supply of earthly treats for all to eat! *** "Because we live in a fast food culture, with larger & larger urban populations and fewer rural farming communities, we have more and more of an emotional, spiritual and physical disconnect from our food supply, and from knowing where & how our food is grown. By making food production and consumption a form of communication with the Divine, we will individually and collectively develop the Will Forces, the Heart Forces & Soul Forces within we so desperately need to strengthen us to perform our task upon the Earth at this crucial moment of cultural transformation -- the end of the Age of Competition, Industrialization and Oil and Global War, and the beginning of the Age of Cooperation, Environmentalism, Renewable Power and Global Community. By being prayerful in our gardens and our fields, in our kitchens and dining rooms, we learn to acknowledge the Divine Spark within all life forms on earth, from the smallest to the most predatory -- humans. ... A simple act of Reverence, opens us to Grace, grounds us in the present awareness of our lives, and links us energetically to all with whom we are connected. Gratitude & Reverence open the gate to remembering our Spirit Selves. We pass through this doorway to the invisible world of Nature spirits. When we engage the Spirits of Nature, we further open ourselves to invisible nourishment -- to the unceasing incalculable flow of universal life force energy which creates, which fulfills & which moves through us all." http://www.satyacenter.com/library-archive-vernal-equinox-2006 *** Sanskrit Blessing This ritual is one. The food is one. We who offer the food are one. The fire of hunger is also one. All action is one. We who understand this are one.

Day 26 - SPEAK AND SPELL

*Breath of Gold by Vicki Krieger* Speaking words of Gratitude is much more than 'Thank You' - it is an intentional journey to the heart - to gather, collect, and reflect that which benefits all. Gratitude gives us clarity, strength, and fortitude to speak our truth, be our word, and Live as Love. Just for today: Speak Gratitude into your conversations with others. Beyond words, let this Source force energy-in-motion (emotion) flood your conversations with appreciation for what IS. Be committed to feeling each word. Does it feel like Gratitude to you? Will others feel it, too? Let this be the intention - the standard - for verbal communications. Also, listen for returning Gratitude, making note of changed atmosphere, outcome, or opening possibilities. *** Go Gratitude! *** As you listen to the words of others - seek to discover the gift of Gratitude present in each syllable, sound and sentence. Feel the Love as Logos - the Word. As you prepare to respond, Go to Gratitude. Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

61

Words of truth, beauty, freedom and Love will spill forth to uplift and edify the exchange, flowing from the heart to Now. As grateful words pass between you, misting the atmosphere with watery thoughts, others will benefit, too - a collective pool of current conversations waking with Love and Gratitude! oh! and remember this: Each word spoken is recorded in our saliva - a vibratory reflection of the essence of the message. Being nearly 99% water, saliva holds a "memory" of all that passes through our body/mind/spirit. A healthy human produces nearly 600 milliliters of saliva each day - enough to fill a 12 oz. bottle. Talk about swallowing our own words! *** Join with me. Come forth in gratitude. Speak Thy golden words of LOVE, Emanating from Thy heart; Creating golden sparkles of Breath Divine. As we speak our golden breath, As we come forth in gratitude With our "golden speech", Blessings are bestowed upon all. Like the ripples in a pond, Ever increasing Ever far reaching Ever engulfing Into the eternal Pond of Love Into our Creator's arms As One. Amen. ~ Vicki Krieger, www.HeartfeltOriginals.com

Day 27 - WRITES OF PASSAGE

Just for today: Go to your heart and ask "Who am I grateful for?" As an image, a memory, an inspiration surfaces - trust and follow this inner prompting. Now write a thank you note to this person. Allow your heart to guide your hand as you relate, appreciate and edify another for their gift of Gratitude to you! Let go of any pressure to deliver this message. Rather - focus on content, essence and expression of the full-ness of Gratitude brimming within you. *** Go Gratitude! *** Remember - as you appreciate others for their gifts to you, an energetic portal of universal support is opened, accelerating the Law of Attraction to deliver more. *** A psychology professor at the University of Michigan, Peterson regularly gave his students an unusual homework assignment. He asked them to write a "gratitude letter," a kind of belated thank-you note to someone in their lives. Studies show such letters provide long-lasting mood boosts to the writers. Indeed, after the exercise, Peterson says his students feel happier "100 percent of the time."

Breathe deeply. Again ... real-easing all resistance to peaceful-ness. As you lovingly thank you for being YOU, feel this inner gifting shifting current states to flow in unison with Now. Quietly, imagine with the minds eye a light, small yet bright, glowing in a pool of darkness. This light, rising to shine by way of sheer will, deeply present to surface easily, is guidance for roaming attentions, a space for focus to Go and rest. Remember, Gratitude is GO. On. Happyning. So relax, rest well. Let GO to Be this light. Breathe deeply once more. Ahhhhhhh .... Exhale gratefully while allowing this light to expand, flooding beyond boundaries of what you currently see, rippling to spill past you, to flow through all possibilities true. Allow a moment to appreciate this contrast, this shift, this state of flaming Grace. Calmly witness this light draw back to push toward it's Source of Origin, feeling each fractal wave of waking change embracing, comforting, inspiring and guiding You to Be One, with Light, as Love and Gratitude. Quickly, now, return this light to it's original size, while noticing altered states of being ... an immersion of current awareness in Joyfull-ness, blissfully emitting an afterglow, an enlighten-meant, a bright-ness to glorify Now. Intuitively remember this light IS Gratitude, a bright (k)new possibility shining before you. Embrace this light with Love, giving thanks for its presence, essence, and ability to shift at will - to Go, grow and return with ease and speed ... a spark of creative originality awakening within YOU, manifesting intentions as Love and Gratitude. *********************************************

Day 29 - AFFINITY THROUGH GRATITUDE

*image source - unknown* Greetings Beloved One-ness, For the next cycle, we will be moving through the global aspects of Gratitude - those that have direct effect on the whole, while being Universally personal. We are also gearing up for our Day 42. Wow! Are we here and nearly there already? yes! Yes! YES! You see - our gathering has been daily connecting with the power, promise, essence and message of Gratitude while re-creating patterns within the Self. Re-creating these patterns allows our collective consciousness to tap into a growing flow of Love and Gratitude aiding quick shifts into empowering paradigms that serve NOW with grace and ease. We've also extended our Gratitudinal connections beyond the Self to our community - enlarging our affinity range. What is an affinity range? Mirriam-Webster defines Affinity as this: A relation between biological groups involving resemblance in structural plan and indicating a common origin.

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

66

So our affinity range is the depth, distance, and degree of connection to the Divine plan and our common origins. As we recognize the resemblance between ourselves, and the world around us, our Gratitude begins to accelerate as Intelligent change-in-motion ... extending our affinity for all creation, opening opportunities for recognition of commonalities, releasing the illusion of separation while creating mass identification as One Source, One Love, One You and One Me, too ... all gathered in the name of Gratitude. A common origin, indeed. Whohoooooooooooooooo! *** Go Gratitude! *** Just for today: Let's give thanks for the courage to choose a (k)new path ... remembering together we are better, as we co-create a World of Love and Gratitude. *** "God is revealed in all Creation. We humans belong to the whole interdependent community of life on earth. Rejoice in the beauty, complexity and mystery of creation, with gratitude to be part of its unfolding. Take time to learn how this community of life is organized and how it interacts. Live according to principles of right relationship and right action within this larger whole. Be aware of the influence humans have on the health and viability of life on earth. Call attention to what fosters or harms earth's exquisite beauty, balances and interdependencies. Guided by Spirit, work to translate this understanding into ways of living that reflect our responsibility to one another, to the greater community of life, and to future generations." ~ Orange County Friends Meeting Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) Santa Ana, California *************************************************

Day 30 - RE-VIEWING GRATITUDE

* image source - Souledout.org* To re-view our recent journey, through the personal-communal-collective aspects of Gratitude, let's consider the progression of the experience: To begin, we remember to listen within ... immersing our physical consciousness in a cocktail of empowering endorphins, witnessing first-person what Gratitude feels like - that Gratitude IS. Next, to witness this power reflected by the "outer" life, as external manifestations begin to mirror Divinity within - intentions arriving in the form of (k)new relationships, financial abundance, ecstatic excursions or blissful peace ... be these business, pleasure or play. As others, too, begin to resonate in harmony with Gratitude, continual confirmations arrive, satisfying the logical mind, ('hey! this works!') allowing current awareness to take up residence in the center of our being - the heart. Then, as Gratitude begins to wake and roll through hearts and minds worldwide, a glorious shift takes place. We 'think with our hearts and love with our minds' ... flipping this existence in honor of abundance, love, joy, bliss, peace and prosperity. *** Go Gratitude! *** Just for today:

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

68

Write here, rite now ... re-create a pattern. Consider for a moment a current feeling of resistance, be this idea, experience, or possibility - one that keeps you from feeling the universal flow of Love and Gratitude. Quickly make note of its presence. Love it. Now Let Go. As you do, feel Gratitude returning to fill this space - remember, nature abhors a vacuum and will quickly deliver a (k)new intention ... one purely Divine, in-line and on time to assist a shift, a mass transformation happyning Now ... Within YOU ... and so many, many others, too! *** Jasmuheen offers this on resonance and Gratitude, excerpted from a list of 33 Universal laws: # 10. Law of Resonance: Like energies attract like particles due to their electromagnetic fields; so whatever we send out in thought, word or action, is amplified and returned to us. # 25. The Law of Gratitude: The Law of Gratitude is governed by the Law of Resonance. This law states that the more we express our gratitude for the things we enjoy in life, the more we will attract to ourselves things to be grateful for. *************************************************

Day 31 - FREQUENT SEE OF GRATITUDE

image source: unknown Just for today: Breathe deeply ... Now peacefully focus on creating a state of Gratitude deep within you. As you begin to recognize the shift within, quietly give thanks for remembering the presence of this powerful tool for transformation. As you offer a heartfelt 'thanks' to you, an energetic amplifcation of this Source force energy magnifies the essence, presence, and power of Gratitude within ... Creating harmonic waves resonating with others, too, who are now heartfully focusing on Gratitude. *** Go Gratitude! *** As each heart holds a pattern of Gratitude, a resonant wave begins to flood beyond our bodies -connecting each heart in harmony with the frequency of Gratitude ... creating interwoven fields, fractals of energetic transformation and doors of possibility between each being choosing to vibrate with Love and Gratitude. Just imagine what the surface of the earth might look like as we become standing waves, immersing ourselves, the planet, Yes! all creation in a hearty wave of Gratitude.

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

70

Now imagine what might happen as we all choose to enter a state of Gratitude - in unison, as One ... ... a splendid happyning to manifest, indeed! *** "You create a morphic body of living coherence magnetically and sonically in the Earth. Thereby you create a literal resonance information path to deliver the information from the human heart into the Earth's grid and back. Sacred architecture would be in the language of biology's morphic resonance and structural stability. This is not just a large galactic mouthful to swallow from a little data set which says human feelings shape the Earth's field. This is what we all intuitively know in our own deeper heart. It is time to listen to the voice of our deep feelings from the heart. Learning to self-manage our thoughts and emotions is automatically "Earth grid engineering" and is not just saving the Earth; it is preserving our memory of the principle for making a collective and whole body, so that the planet Earth can take its true place in the universe, a planet of love and light." ~ Dan Winter **************************************************

Day 32 - (K)NEW VIEW ON EVOLUTION

* image by Luke Brown* You may remember the Go Gratitude experiment began with a vision of creating a world wide wave of Gratitude, invisibly waking at the heart of humanity ... no devastation, no destruction. Rather, a massive tidal wave of change, reconnecting our water bodies to Love, assisting with Re-membering Hue-manity as being Divine. How quickly we have evolved beyond the initial 42 day experiement, extending our affinity range - gathering, connecting, co-creating and manifesting miracles - as Love, with Gratitude! Thank you, Thank you, Thank YOU! Now, you might wonder why 42? Initially, this worked as such: It takes 21 days to create a habit, so doubled to 42 we move through to Mastery of Gratitude. Evolution of Spirit, one might say. Guess what?!?!? 42 continues to be revealed as a Divinely inspired space of time. Beyond being the angle light reflects off water to create a rainbow (42 degrees), and the synchronicity of being the number of dots on a pair of dice (paradise) ... are you ready? It is also the numerical value of Gratitude, like this:

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

72

G R A T I T U D E 7+ 9 + 1 + 2 + 9 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 42 *** Go Gratitude! *** So ... perhaps evolution is Mastery-in-action, full spectrum living as the ability to view our world in a (k)new way ... much like light, meeting watery time, cooperating to create rainbows gracing our lives sublime. And a (k)new view on evolution? Let's read it backwards, then listen, listen again, listen deeply. NO IT U LOVE NO IT U LOVE (k)NO(w) IT ... U LOVE! *** The number 42 stands for the TRINITY. It is the number of the inner purity of the soul of humanity; uniting the subconscious with the conscious mind. It represents the CREATIVITY OF HUMANITY or the united forces of male and female to create this number's keyword. Are you ready to receive it? The word is LOVE!! The negative expression of this key is the IDEA of separateness. The #42 governs our sacred contracts, harmony, marriage and meditation. Another word for this number key is Co-Operation. ~ Jeanne L. Thompson

Day 33 - LETTING GO

*artwork by Adriane Enns* Just for today: Re-connect with a current intention, letting go of who, where, what, why or how will make this manifest Now. Simply rest for a moment to witness waves of appreciation, flowing through all creation, ~ evanescent sparks from the center of our hearts ~ returning to journey as messenger, message, and Sage. *** Go Gratitude! *** Imagine Gratitude as a wave, flowing to grow beyond you. Now listen to the heartbeat within ... taking you beyond thought to a place of Being. Allow space to rest in this place of creation - quietly immersing to disperse wisdom, power and Love within. Consider recording or sharing what emerges, in order to create a reference point - a Gauge for you, and others, too, to note our progress as we manifest miracles through Gratitude! *** Through the words of another time, the ancients invited us to embrace our lost mode of prayer as a consciousness that we become, rather than a

prescribed form of action that we perform upon occasion. In words that are as simple as they are elegant, we are reminded to be "surrounded" by the answer to our prayers and "enveloped" by the conditions that we choose to experience. In the modern idiom, this description suggests to us that to effect change in our world, we are invited to first have the feelings of the change having happened. ~ Gregg Braden

Day 34 - HELLO HALO

*source: unknown

Just for today: Imagine our symbol of Gratitude as a human halo Divinely designed to rest on our heads, linear time curving round to rise beyond Now as receiver, translator, and illuminated believer. *** Go Gratitude! *** On the flip side of the symbol? An 'e' ... for ecstasy. ... Ecstatically grateful, crowned in glory ~ all by choice, temperament, and inner voice. Plus! Gratitude, re-presented by this physical symbol, allows our logical minds to perceive the possibility, mechanics and presence of an energetic ring, lightly toted above our earthly Being. As this logical mind feels satisfied, releasing control to higher guidance, an extension begins to make manifest the peace within - moving beyond fear, terror, anger or rage to embody Love as Light, with Gratitude present and in-sight!

Copyright © 2006 and beyond. Stacey Robyn, GoGratitude.com and WorldGratitude.com.

76

Oh! and consider this: Ecstasy is rooted in the Greek word, ekstasis, meaning to stand outside oneself, to feel your sense of self projected to a point outside that occupied by your body. Ecstatic Gratitude - Hellllloooo, Halo! *** As you focus on the physical heart and generate the feeling of appreciation, or gratitude, a waveform of energy begins to flow throughout the body—carried by the magnetic fields of the heart, which emanate outward from the physical heart to encompass your entire body. As the flow of energy begins throughout the body, there is a spontaneous arising of ecstasy—cellular ecstasy. ...In working with this method your attention is, again, on the heart, generating feelings of appreciation and gratitude. And as you sense ecstasy beginning to arise in your body, you shift your attention to the field around your body. This field of energy looks very much like a luminous egg when viewed clairvoyantly. ...There is a central line or axis that runs through the center of this field, and it happens to also run through the center of your physical body—through the top of the head and down through the perineum. This line is the central axis of the magnetic field that comprises the subtle energy body. This body, or field, extends above the head and below the feet a few inches, to a several feet, or even yards. In certain highly charged energy states, the axis and subtle energy body can expand much farther than that. By shifting your attention to this central axis and to the field surrounding your body, you allow the ecstasy to move out from the physical body into the field. This is very positive and creates powerful harmonic patterns that bring you into resonance with the waveforms of accelerated evolution that are flowing through your galaxy. ~ The Hathors, through Tom Kenyon

Day 35 - HUNAB KU AS GRATITUDE

* Mayan Hunab Ku * Imagine a cord emerging through the heart center of you ... Now feel this cord flowing from the pure heart beating within, spinning through the crystal center of the Earth, the Sun, the Galaxy, and yes! the heart of all consciousness ~ with Love, as Love, to be Love, in Gratitude for all that IS, re-connecting every level of Creation as One. With tenderness and grace, gently pulse loving Gratitude along this cord. Be fully present to enjoy a resonant vibration with all creation connecting You to Source, here to Now. Lovingly consider this cord to be a universal, yet personal pathway, pattern or possibility ~ a current of simultaneous Come and Go ~ a creative flow cosmic-ly connecting the heart of YOU with the Source of (k)new. *** Go Gratitude! ***

78

Hunab Ku as Gratitude ~ come and go, black or white, dark or light, wrong or right ~ is unified polarity, beginning to end as One. Just for today: Look into your eyes. Notice both black and white appear together, yet separate unified polarities colored with streaming consciousness. Ge! ... it's been right before our very eyes from the beginning of time, we just left it to the last minute to make it exciting, inviting, and surprisingly de-lighting!

g

e

*** "The Mayan word ‘ge’ symbolizes the beginning, the source from which all life manifests. Ge represents the egg and literally translated means zero. ... Moreover, the spiral form of the G symbolizes the source of our existence, the Milky Way. The G can be accessed very easily through the symbol of Hunab Ku, which represents the center of the galaxy, or the heart of galactic consciousness. Hunab Ku can be translated as “One Giver of Movement and Measure,” and is conceptually equivalent to God, Great Spirit, or Absolute Being. ... This Hunab Ku is the Heart of All Beings and each of us is connected through our own hearts. In fact, it is impossible to be disconnected. ... Thus, from the perspective of the Galactic Maya, there is one Source of all energy which is divine consciousness. This ener-Ge, or divine consciousness, manifests itself as an infinite number of possible forms throughout all dimensions. Each possible form is a frequency vibration; indeed all matter is essentially interconnected waves of energy. So, unlike our culture which is obsessed with matter, i.e. physical science and materialism, the Maya based their understanding of reality on frequencies, vibrations, and harmonies. As we move into the basics of Mayan time keeping, it will be helpful to remember that we’re talking about frequencies and harmonic resonance. Indeed, numbers

any clue as to how they might be arriving - I signed on the dotted line, and committed myself to the adventure. Intuitively I knew at the time it was an exercise in being peace, letting go to be fully present, and enjoying the current journey. With a grateful heart, a short time later, I stood before the bridge pictured above, a witness to my own magnificent ability to manifest my intentions. Peace flowed through my entire being as I realized the reflection before me was an illusion - in an instant, elemental influences would alter, re-arrange, and distort my view. However, by holding the experience, the meaning, the gift in my heart, this state of peaceful Gratitude transcended time to simply BE ... An eternal Now within ME. I am grateful to be here with you, to bridge our experiences in support of our mutual dreams, darings and adventurous wanderings. Thank you, thank you, thank for your presence on this amazing journey! Thank you for co-creating World Gratitude. Thank you for being YOU. In Love and Gratitude, Stacey Perhaps you, too, remember a moment, THE moment, ONE moment when you (k)new you were powerful beyond measure, and all the heavens were present to deliver earthly treasures. Consider sharing here, or at the FORUM, in order to add to our memories the collective success's enjoyed by many as ONE.

*Return of the Golden Mean by B. Xolotl* Imagine Gratitude rippling peacefully beyond you. Take note of the rise and fall, the crest and the trough, as it flows to grow beyond Now. Originating at the sacred heart-space within, each beat creates waves of Love and Gratitude rippling through you physically (water), emotionally (vibration), and spiritually (frequency). Now, imagine two hearts gathered in Gratitude ~ waking ripples growing to meet and greet while forming (k)new space for creation between, like this:

“We will begin by saying that your current lives consist of many holograms layered upon each other – this layering effect creates an overlapping. The space where the hologram intersects is called a “Vesica Pisces”. “This centre space where the intersection occurs is unique in that it is a pathway or gateway. It is not entirely ruled by the universal laws of your 3rd dimensional reality – it is therefore a place where there is an unlimited ability to connect with 5th dimensional frequency and higher, it is the Morphogenetic or Quantum Field. Within this space exists a fabric or matrix of light fibres that contain information that can be plucked or vibrated. When the fibers or order of the information is altered you affect change in ALL directions outside of your linear time & space. You can navigate the infinite realms of pure potential from this space." “Visualize yourself in the 1st circle. In the 2nd circle visualize it pulsating with radiant rainbow liquid light. See the circle’s intersecting and creating the Vesica Pisces. Once you can see this - place yourself in that space and proceed to connect through your heart chakra. From your heart in true authenticity and purity allow your imagination to dream your new reality.” ~ the Arcturians *************************************************

Day 38 - PIECE BY BEING PEACE

* Ascension Celebration by Willow Arlenea *

Imagine Gratitude is an instrument of Peace - gracefully unifying heart and mind, and so releasing the boundaries of time, to freely enjoy riding the currents of creation ... a 'Peace' of Love flowing to Grow and BE the Great*Full*Ness of Life. Peace is wholeness -- a Divine Union of Now with All that IS -- Micro mirroring Macro, and uniquely complete. Being Peace is to re-member the sacredness, beauty and perfection of creation, and so is a release ... an ease ... a calm comfort waking through our being to fully appreciate NOW -- by focusing our attentions on the gift of the Present. Wow! *** Go Gratitude! ***

Look at the symbol - there is an 'Inner Piece', embraced by the Great*Full*ness of Life. All by Divine design~ a symbolic reflection of our b'earth rite to thrive and in-JOY a state of Inner Peace. Quite an Ins-True-Meant, indeed *** Being Our Peace Prayer/Meditation ~ In order to effectively usher in the new paradigm of peace through a group collective effort of prayer/meditation, it is important that we create a feeling-based prayer in which we are being our prayer. The ancient Essene-Kabbalistic teaching (on which Greg Braden's "Isaiah Effect" is based) has a specific word for this technology of prayer-- l'hitpallel. It is a unique expression, which is profoundly different than the contemporary meaning of prayer that infers praying to God or begging God to change God's mind (as if God is outside of us). L'hitpallel is a verb. It means to do something to oneself. This way of being in prayer is embodied in the Native American way. The Native American shamans did not pray for rain, they prayed rain. L'hitpallel is not about some external God hearing prayers; it is about us being our prayers, in other words, to hear our own prayers by being them. This is the key technology. We create a feeling of peace, rather than a prayer asking for peace. In l'hitpallel, we are actively and intentionally filling our hearts and having a feeling-based experience of what it is that we are creating. It is feeling that what we are praying for has already happened, and for this we stay in a state of thankfulness. ~ Peace Every Day Initiative; Peace by being Peace http://www.peaceeveryday.org/peace.html

Day 40 - LET'S CELEBRATE!

*image courtesy of Michael Benjamin*

Greetings Beloved One-ness, Welcome and Congratulations! Today, we enter three days of Celebration. Together, we have journeyed beyond the realm of time, exploring inner sanctuaries to heart~fully view our world through the eyes of Gratitude. Beginning with the personal aspects of Gratitude, our journey has taken us through a communal perspective, beyond Global, delivering us to Now - refined, strengthened, empowered, and connected. Miracles, synchronicities, and evolutions of Divine multiplicities have been experienced, witnessed, and shared - within our growing family of Gratitude - and beyond. Be ecstatic!, as you are in the company of powerful beings of Love and Light, connecting with their energy to form a grid of Gratitude encircling the Earth. *** Go Gratitude!

*** Open your heart to celebrate an experience, memory, insight or ahhah! received during our time together. As you connect, release the details, simply tapping in to the feeling. This feeling, as energy-inmotion, is a Master Key ... opening all doors of possibility - for you, and all others, too who choose to live in Love and Gratitude. This discipline - the ability to shift into a pure state of Gratitude - will allow our intentions to be-come manifestations with ease, speed, and grace by opening our hearts to believe and our minds to receive. You see, as our bodily waters crystallize, peacefully reflecting the geometric perfection of Gratitude, so will all other bodies of water, too. On Day 42 we invite everyone worldwide to join with us for a Gratitude meditation ceremony. At 11:11, everyone's local time, we will be entering a space of Gratitude by clearing our thoughts, expectations, or attachments – opening ourselves to be aligned with the Heart's calling and embracing the Great*Full*Ness of Life. You are invited to join with us, where ever you are, at 11:11 or otherwise. Most importantly, breathe into your heart. Listen to the space between each breath, for this is where Love resides. Feel yourself being Aligned with the Heart's calling and Embrace the Great*Full*Ness of Life. By nature, this will co-create a wave of Gratitude, planet-wide, rolling through hearts and minds, to bridge what has been with what will BE -- and so usher in the Age of Peace and Illumination. You may also have plans for a personal celebration! Please feel free to post these on the FORUM, under Today's Message, or comment at the BLOG. Sharing inspired ideas on ways to celebrate will assist others by opening (k)new possibilities for experiencing Love and Gratitude. *** Remember, as you choose to enter a state of peaceful Gratitude, it matters only that you do so - - regardless of time, setting, company or space. Stay tuned ~ tomorrow we will share an inspiring collection of musical reflections on Gratitude, to uplift, inspire and magnify our inner Gratitude, expanding our magnitude of Global effect by peacefully re-connecting our water bodies to Love!

Day 42 - TRINITY OF GRATITUDE

* ArtPeace gifted by Tammi Baliszewski*

Just for today: In the spirit of celebration, let's use a simple meditation to clear the mind, synchronize with the galactic heart, and calibrate the spirit to resonate with Love and Gratitude. As you do, remember you are being joined by multitudes of others, amplifying the energetic transmissions by creating coherence, first between the heart and mind, then within our collective consciousness. As this happens, a shift takes place, stretching our previously created reality into a (k)new state of being - one resonating at the level of Love and Gratitude. During this concentrated period of time, our collective power is highly focused, and a "gateway" is Now open to accelerate delivery of intended manifestations. So, today we're celebrating the magic, miracles and synchronistic events that bring me to you, us to Now, by simply allowing ourselves the time and space to immerse our consciousness in a flood of Love and Gratitude. Why? This form of conscious creation, as silent prayer or affirmation, is powerful, effective, and universally connective! Now, in order to create a physical world wide wave of Love and Gratitude, we will be gathering at 11:11 AM and PM for a silent meditation. Just imagine, as hearts and minds worldwide gather to give thanks simultaneously, our wave will flow at the speed of Love, encircling Mother Earth, while synchronizing our efforts in natural time.

To join in this celebration simply focus on a memory where you experienced a sincere feeling of Gratitude. Hold this memory in your heart, allowing the body and mind to be guided by Love. Now simply breathe in thanks and release appreciation. Following the breath will release any distractions, returning you to the center of Gratitude, the core of NOW ... the Heart of YOU. *** Go Gratitude! *** Perhaps commitments require your presence elsewhere at 11:11? As so, let go of any attachment to time and simply visualize the world bathed in a wave of Love and Gratitude where ever, whenever you feel inspired to do so. Feel this presence, essence and Light connecting with the heart light at the center of you. Tap into the feeling of Gratitude ~ the Great*Full*ness. Breathe into your heart, receiving the gift of the Present and releasing Peace-full appreciation. Rejoice! You are present and accounted for! Prior to beginning this meditation, you may also choose to use this simple technique for instantly connecting you with our family of Gratitude: Consider standing/sitting with bare feet. Create a bridge between your heart and the center of the Sun, giving thanks for it's life sustaining presence. Lovingly bridge this light through you, spiraling down to the heart of the earth. With Gratitude, remember the One-ness of all that IS. You are Earth embracing Light. With silent Gratitude, feel the grace, glory, and Divinity within. Now feel waves of appreciation returning from the center of the earth to energize and support you. As these do, amplify energetic transmissions of Love and Gratitude with every beat of your heart, each building on the previous to flow, flow, flow beyond you, intermingling with other, too, who are gathered to celebrate. Thank you for your presence on this amazing journey! Thank you for being YOU! *** We propose that the heart's field acts as a carrier wave for information that provides a global synchronizing signal for the entire body. Specifically, we suggest that as pulsing waves of energy radiate out from the heart, they interact with organs and other structures. The waves encode or record the features and dynamic activity of these structures in patterns of energy waveforms that are distributed throughout the body. In this way, the encoded information acts to in-form (literally, give shape to) the activity of all bodily functions--to coordinate and synchronize processes in the body as a whole. This perspective requires an energetic concept of information, in which patterns of organization are enfolded

Thank you for being YOU. Now, you may be wondering 'What now?!?!" We believe our gathering has laid the foundation for an emerging new world ... one built on the principles and gentle strength of Love and Gratitude, and will continue to thrive as (k)new ideas, projects, miracles and possibilities emerge. Many are present now, others are seedlings just planted, being nurtured through a healthy dose of daily Gratitude! Now, Beloveds, we began this journey with a purpose --to Align with the Heart's calling and Embrace the Great*Full*Ness of Life. We also invited you to set an intention, something to focus on and bring to Life throughout this process. Today we invite you to re-visit this intention, and the journey, too, that has brought us here, NOW, together as One. Breathe into your hearts and ask yourself this question, "What AM I
