Dharma Doodle: The Power of Wish

by Eric on February 17, 2012

Trees are key symbols in all sacred traditions. Recall the tree in  the Garden of Eden.  Remember where the Buddha sat – under a tree!  

The Wish Tree an ancient image from the yogic tradition that symbolizes the organic, creative power of your being.
 You can connect with the Wish Tree by envisioning your spine as the trunk of that sacred tree. Feel all the neural networks that flow in and out of the spine as the branches, leaves, and flowers of that tree.
It is said that whatever you dream of while under the Wish Tree will come to pass.

Your dream will arise in your experience; appear in your life. Like this . . .

You’re sitting under the Wish Tree.
What are you dreaming? 
You can dream a new dream . . . if you are conscious. Otherwise, the unconscious patterns of emotional reactivity will continue to dream for you. And the Wish Tree will respond.
 
The Wish Tree doesn’t judge the dreams.
It simply and organically transmutes the subtle promptings of your inner being into your consciously experienced reality.
It is up to you – to choose the dream.
 
The patterns of the past have served their purpose. It is up to you to untangle your consciousness from outmoded dreams.
 
What is it that you most deeply and authentically want to experience, create, and realize in your life?

Dream that more fully, more clearly, more congruently, and more harmoniously.

What are you dreaming?

How to become wise

January 14, 2012

Sometimes the fundamental impermanence of life can seem to throw a wet blanket over your life. Then goal setting, working hard, doing . . . anything . . . becomes pointless.
