Breathe. Believe. Receive.

by Shannon Port

Close your eyes and take a deep breath in through your heart center and as you do so focus on what it is you want right now. Believe in it and feel it, and then exhale your breath slowly and RECEIVE what you desire from deep within your own being.

Start working with the practice of receiving and Mother Shakti will begin to reveal Her secrets to you. The art of manifesting is the art of receiving. One can only know this through personal experience.

The world will open up and show you a different kind of power that lives deep within your own being when you start to listen and receive the cosmic intelligence that lives in each moment.

There have been those who say that it is impossible to be in the moment and I assure you that they have never had the experience of being there themselves. It takes a deep desire to
be there and a willingness to listen. In our action-oriented world we have given little importance to the art of listening and receiving. The truth is that our world has become so noisy that few people know how to listen anymore. The noise is creating all kinds of problems for us. When we cease to listen to our bodies, we become ill. When we let our minds become overloaded and overstimulated with noise we become drained of energy and depressed.

Rejuvenation and healing begins with listening. All right-action arises out of receptivity. This is the age of the arising of the feminine. Those who have the ears and the heart and mind to hear will discover these secrets through their own creative experience. They will discover that receptivity and listening will open the door to a new world; a world where your intuition and creative self join forces to manifest all that your soul desires.

To be present in the moment is to have the power to access the creative intelligence of the Universe to bring in whatever the moment calls for. That very intelligence lives within us. We are creative beings and our most expansive state of consciousness comes from being completely immerged in the present moment. Many great athletes, artists and musicians will attest to this whole-heartedly. Often times musicians and athletes report not having to think about what they are doing or worry about their next note or next play because it simply arises out of the moment that they are in.


This is the beginning of a series of writings I am working on about receptivity and the feminine teachings.
