Meditation at fullmoon |
The Moon reflects the sunlight
The inspirational culmination is due to the fact that the Earth at full moon, during a period of 5 days, is supplied with more spiritual sunlight than at any other time of the month. The entire surface of the Moon is fully illuminated by the sunlight and reflects this to the Earth.
The English theosophist, Alice Bailey, tells us that the enormous being that keep the whole world in his consciousness (called Earth Logos by the theosophists) has his most intensive meditation at the hour of full moon. As we are cells in the consciousness of this being we participate in this meditative climax. The mental work hereby is facilitated and we will be able to meditate more successfully and to obtain inspiration more easily.
Meditation at full moon – how?
Meditations about the hour of full moon are arranged all over the world and this practice gains more and more followers. The meditations of the different groups often vary a great deal and yet they rest on common procedures.
They often use common visualizations as well as a period with meditation on a mind seed, which contains the essence of the month’s energies. Often some common word formulas, which could be the Lord’s Prayer or the Gayatri Mantra , are recited, but frequently the Great Invocation, which also has been called the world prayer of the new religion of the world, is used
This common group meditation could give rise to a group inspiration, which correspond to the intention underlying the visualizations, to the mind seed, to the invocation and to the energies of the month in question. A group meditation is far more efficient than prayers because it combines the devotion of the heart with the determination of the focused mind.
The united minds of the group create a synergetic effect that exceeds the capacity of a single person.
