Spiritual Growth & Ascension

I am delighted to welcome everyone to this Sacred Website - City Of Shamballa, where we help each other with our spiritual growth, upliftment, & healing by giving each other loving support and by sharing meditations, spiritual practices, Reiki, and healings.
 
And you are also welcome to share any blockages or problems in your spiritual journey, for we may be able to help you and extend Divine Love & Light, Healing, and Wisdom on what you are experiencing.
 
We are all divinely connected to one another, for God's Presence resides within every human being.
 
And all awakened souls are helping manifest our 5th dimensional world by continuing to unfold and embody our own Divine Presence through our spiritual practices and the Divine Healings we all need.
 
So sharing our visions of the new 5th dimensional world we are all creating...and sharing our experiences and spiritual practices that are helping us in our own spiritual journey and healing are important in our website.
 
My vision is to create a world where everyone is living in peace and joy and abundance with all of humanity having realized and embodied their Divine Self.
 
So everyone - feel free to share your Divine Love, Light, Healing Energies,  & Wisdom here with posts that help uplift us all, or in any way your Divine Heart guides you to share with us.
 
I extend to All of You Mother/Father/God's Supreme Blessings Divinely Perfect for each of you for your life, for your healing, and for your spiritual growth.
Love, Steve - Admin

Metta or Loving-Kindness Prayer Practice From Buddhism

Metta or Loving-Kindness Prayer Practice From Buddhism

Sit down, quiet your mind, and beginning with yourself, say:


May I be free from fear.

May I be free from suffering.

May I be happy.

May I be filled with loving-kindness.

Next, focus on someone you love and say the same prayer on that person's behalf.

Then pray in the same way for a neutral person, someone you don't know.

Finally, pray for someone you dislike. In doing so, you nourish the seeds of kindness and love in yourself and then let it radiate outward.

This prayer is especially useful for someone who doesn't believe in God, but still feel a curiosity or pull toward prayer. According to Hogen Bays, a priest in the Zen Community of Oregon, "the function of prayer is to connect us with that which is greater than our small self." Metta does exactly that.
