Re: VIVATION

May 26, 2003

Prem, I do appreciate all of your posts and how you are trying to help

people. But, this is an affirmations group, and a positive thinking group. I'm

not sure that your other philosophies and talking about your book alot, is

acceptable here. I have kept my mouth shut for awhile, thinking it would calm

down. But, since it hasn't, please refrain from advertising your book on this

group, and try to get things back to affirmations and positive thinking. If you

feel you cannot do that, maybe you need to leave and start your own yahoo group.

If you decide to do that, I will post the link of your website for interested

members of the affirmations group. I'm not meaning this in a rude, or mean, or

cruel way. I'm just feeling like things have been moving away from the purpose

and goal of this group too much lately. Let's try to get it back to what it was

intended to be! If you need some examples, go back and read the early posts (or

messages) on the affirmations site. I wish you success with your book, and

success to you. But, we do NOT advertise here, and I told everyone that when

people joined the group. The only reason we put an author's name and book is to

properly give copyright permission to the author, when we are quoting them.

That's all. Thank you for understanding! PJ

I learned vivation in 86 and it has been the one most effective tool for

my transformation. It is a five element process ( as I know it) that

puts one in a state of joy and ecstasy. Most people practice it a few

times a week. I took it to the extreme and practiced it at least twice a

day for many years until it came automatically to me.

During that time, I realized that Vivation is the five elements of

unconditional love and when one practices them, they are practicing

loving themselves unconditionally. I pasted the third chapter on my

book, The Joy Book as it explains it better.

CHAPTER THREE

The Five Steps of Unconditional Love

Unconditional love is not something that we read about in verse or talk

about in church. Unconditional love is a reality. It is within the reach

of all who want it. Most of us were practicing unconditional love when

we were born. From that moment on, the mass consciousness of the planet

began converting us to conditional love. By the age of eight most of us

had lost all vestige of the joy we experienced by loving ourselves

unconditionally. We had been trained to love ourselves conditionally.

In order to return to that experience of unconditional love, we must

learn how to practice it on a moment to moment basis. The Five Steps of

Unconditional Love are the elements of unconditional love. The Five

Steps are simple and easy to learn and practice. Since unconditional

love is our natural birthright, practicing the Five Steps is just being

naturally who you really are. Since most of us have been practicing

conditional love for many years, it may take a bit of practice before

unconditional love becomes automatic to you again. It is important to

know that practicing the Five Steps is easy and can be done anywhere and

anytime. You can do them while you work or while you play.

THE FIVE STEPS OF

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

Circular Connected Breathing

Complete Relaxation

Awareness In Detail

Integration Into Ecstasy

Do It Now, Be Spontaneous

CIRCULAR CONNECTED BREATHING is the first and chief step. At birth most

of us had our umbilical cords cut prematurely before it stopped

pulsating. Until the cord stops pulsating, a baby is still relying on

the mother for life support. Cutting the cord before a child is fully

prepared to breathe on its own puts them in fear of death. Their little

computers (minds) takes the experiences and puts them together (fear and

not breathing). From this they form their first personal law or belief:

When in fear, don’t breathe!

This personal law results in most people breathing very shallow,

fragmented and holding their breath most of their lives. This is caused

by chronic fear, a product of judgment, learned from our parents and

society. Now is the time to relearn or unlearn through the practice of

full and free breathing all of the time, especially when in fear. As

with all the steps, this can only be accomplished through practice.

Doing the Circular Connected Breathing is simple. The inhale is full and

positive. At the end of your inhale, immediately begin the exhale. The

exhale is to be relaxed and totally uncontrolled. What that means is to

just let the exhale fall out. Do not let the exhale out slowly and don't

force the exhale out or blow it out. Once the exhale is complete,

immediately begin the inhale. Continue this method of breathing until it

is automatic.

COMPLETE RELAXATION is the next step and is the opposite of tension.

Tension is what we do to suppress and repress (unconscious suppression)

emotions. Emotions are energy in motion or Emotions. We learned to

suppress certain emotions because we were taught by those around us that

expressing them was wrong or bad (judgment). Men shouldn't cry, it isn't

lady like to express anger, etc. In some households even laughter had to

be suppressed. Tension is the holding of the energy from moving, through

the use of an equal and opposite force of energy. Wherever this energy

was routed in the body for expression, it is now held there in the form

of tension.

When one suppresses crying it causes tension in the sinus area and the

lungs which causes headaches, sinusitis, coughs, and what is referred to

as the common cold. One needs only to emote to rid themselves of the so

called COLD. Suppression of anger causes stiff necks, back problems,

shoulder pain and easily injured muscles and backbones. Chronic

suppression of Emotions can cause organ failure and illness by

overwhelming the cells in that area of the body with excessive energy.

This can be equated to exposing the skin (the largest organ in the body)

to too much solar energy (sunlight) causing severe burning.

Complete relaxation doesn't come at once but is achieved more and more

each day through practice. Complete relaxation is the total lack of the

resistance to the flow of energy in the body and one doesn't have to be

limp to accomplish it. It is a natural state that will be part of your

being whether you are standing, sitting, working, or playing.

When no energy is being used to suppress energy (tension) then more

energy is available to accomplish what one wants in life. The point of

power is in the present moment. Suppressing energy keeps us in the past

or the future. The more the energy from the past and the fear of the

future is released the less we are in tension and the more powerful we

are to manifest what we want and to live life effortlessly.

AWARENESS IN DETAIL, the third element, is opposite of denial and

disassociation. Denial is a practice we learned as a form of self

preservation (defense). We learned this when we were very small, either

from direct experience or from the experience of one or more of our

peers or siblings. Most of us learned it the first time we were

punished.

It usually happened by the time we were two years old. We were very

small at the time and in comparison, our parents were giants. To really

be able to understand the trauma that a child is experiencing when they

are that small and being punished put yourself in the child's place.

Imagine yourself in a confined room with an eighteen foot tall giant

weighing eight hundred pounds, raving mad and screaming that you are

wrong or bad and that you are going to " get it " . The first thought that

will probably enters your mind is: I AM GOING TO DIE. With the giant

screaming that the child is wrong or bad immediately creates the

personal law: WHENEVER I AM WRONG OR BAD I AM GOING TO DIE. The first

action we do in a life threatening situation is to deny and

disassociate. That child wasn't allowed its normal reactions of fight or

flight. The rage energy that was produced from that frightening

experience had to be suppressed. It had to be denied and disassociated

for the expression of rage and anger as a child was deemed wrong and

punishable, sort of a catch 22 situation created by the parent.

If emotions, thoughts, visions, experiences and feelings are made wrong

or bad by our parents and society then anytime we experience being wrong

or bad we automatically go into defense posture and deny the thoughts

and disassociate the emotions to avoid guilt. Since we are living and

experiencing beings we can not go through life without creating these

prohibited experiences. Soon we find we have lost much of our awareness.

Our bodies have become numb. Many feel dead and seek out drugs such as

cocaine to feel alive. Others partake in sports that produce great

adrenaline rushes, all to feel that aliveness they lost through denial

and disassociation. This is one of the reasons why sex is so popular

with its great rush of energy and aliveness and this is also why

enlightened beings do not seek out sex with much eagerness for they have

the aliveness, awareness and love themselves unconditionally.

Being still is probably one of the best methods of creating awareness.

When one is not being distracted by focusing on the outer world, work or

play, they automatically start becoming aware of thoughts and feelings

they have suppressed; thoughts and feelings they don't want to deal

with. To further enhance your awareness, focus on your body as this is

where you are storing all you have suppressed in the form of energy.

INTEGRATION INTO ECSTASY is opposite segregation and is the fourth step.

Segregation is judgment, comparing black to white and making the black

wrong and the white right, the black bad and the white good. Integration

is nonjudgment. Judgment is comparing what IS to some given model. Since

THOUGHT IS CREATIVE and we as thinkers are creators, then all our

experiences are a reflection or manifestation of our thoughts and so

they are perfect. They can never be wrong or bad and no one is a victim.

Everyone’s experiences dovetails (fits perfectly) with everyone else’s.

Once this is understood fully it is easy to see how we are one being

moving together in unison or oneness, like members of a symphony

orchestra or a dance troupe.

Since conditional love is to love through judgment then unconditional

love is to love through integration. When one is in integration, they

are in ecstasy. When this occurs on all levels of consciousness, one

realizes joy. Since judgment is a habit well learned and practiced by

most of society it can be difficult to attain total integration while

surrounded by judgmental beings. For those of us willing to work on

integration while remaining a member of society it is important to be

with others seeking integration and joy. It can be easy to regress when

surrounded with judgmental consciousness, so it is important to stay on

purpose.

Suppressed Emotions and other patterns of energy may surface to your

awareness and cause discomfort or pain. When they do, a simple method of

integrating them are as follows. Say: " I AM THIS(THESE) PATTERN(S) OF

ENERGY. " Also allow the experience to be there. Wanting to get rid of

the discomfort is making it wrong and locks it in further.

Remember that anytime you perceive an experience as good, bad, right or

wrong you have made a judgment. This should set off an alarm in your

head to get back into the fourth step and check the other Five Steps of

unconditional love.

DO IT NOW, BE SPONTANEOUS is number five. All through our lives we seem

to seek approval. If you do what others like or think is right or good

or try to please others so they will approve and love you, this is

conditional love. Our parents and society continuously teach this. As a

child we were punished for our spontaneity and so we fear punishment any

time we act without judgment.

Being spontaneous is to do whatever you want to without prethought.

Prethought is to think before you do. To think whether this will please

the person or persons you are with. To think whether they will accept

you or like or love you if you do it. We become robotrons acting like

everyone else wants us to and not like we want to. We have become

performers, always in a role but never being ourselves. It is time to

become the spontaneous child again. Watch small children and animals.

They are spontaneous. Watch how they are in Joy. Learn from them.

It has been said that the only way to enter the kingdom of heaven is as

a little child. A little child is unconditionally loving, spontaneous

and creative. If one has to please others for their love then they can

not be spontaneous nor can they be creative. They can only act the way

people expect them to and nothing more. They have become actors playing

the role of the good and right person, acting like others want them to

and not being real, alive and honest. Before doing, they always ask is

it good or right? Will it please the others? Is it appropriate? If it is

not, it is suppressed. People have become robotrons, attempting to

please the giant (their parents), and others determined to be a source

of love or approval for them. So, the fifth step is to be spontaneous

and creative. To let that little child in all of you live in

unconditional love. To know that WE are where our love is derived; from

US and not externally. We are love.

For those of us that were products of vigorous regimentation as a child,

this element may be a challenge. Remembering the thoughts when you were

first punished: if I am to live I must please this giant, we can see how

scary it can be for some to be spontaneous. I suggest that the easiest

way to be in this element is to surround yourself with allowing people

and to seek love from your own unconditional source: yourself. It also

helps if you allow others to be spontaneous and just do what ever they

want and not to judge them. Allow is a very powerful practice; see the

perfection in every situation.

This step can also be said to be a culmination of some of the other

steps. All our emotions are spontaneous and must be expressed fully and

freely when they are created. Do not stifle emotions until an

appropriate time, express them when they are created. If you are in the

company of non allowing persons, leave and find an area where you can

express yourself fully. The best choice is to live and work around

people who allow all, unconditionally. If this is possible, do it. But I

know for some it is not a choice you have at this time. Don't fret, for

it will be a choice soon for thought is creative.

Another part of the fifth step is DO IT NOW. Not only does this mean be

spontaneous but to act on your thoughts and desires when you have them.

Procrastination is the monkey wrench in the cog works of progress. It

walks hand in hand with good intentions in the opposite direction we

seek. There is no benefit to any practice or teaching if we are always

going to do it later or tomorrow. We must be on purpose and do it now,

this very moment, not five minutes from now, or later or tomorrow. Do it

now or it probably will never get done.

There is a great resistance in change. This resistance comes from our

birth trauma. Birth was our first experience of change and for most it

was traumatic. Once bit, twice shy, we shy away from change through

procrastination. If we put it off we may never have to change. Even if

the change will bring great benefit, we tend to resist change. We must

stay aware of this and overcome it by DOING IT NOW.

So, do it now; The Five Steps of Unconditional Love. Begin with the

first step and once it is learned, go to the next one and on and on and

on. Once you have learned the Five Steps separately, then practice them

simultaneously and daily. I recommend that everyone do the Five Steps

every fifteen minutes throughout the day. For some, this may be a bit

too much, so for those, do them at least once an hour. You can get wrist

watches that beep on the hour to remind you.

In the beginning, it may take a few minutes each time, but after a short

while you will find that it only takes a few seconds to check yourself

and what you will find is that your experience is one of joy and

aliveness.

Since the Five Steps of Unconditional Love are a practice that brings

one to joy and aliveness, it can be used as a yoga practice. For those

on a spiritual quest, the Five Steps brings great peace when integrated

into your daily practices. Do the Five Steps every morning until you

have totally integrated everything activated in the dream state.

Whatever you do not integrate from your dream state will create

undesirable scenarios during your day that will evoke emotions. This is

the way the body integrates patterns of energy when you don't practice

the Five Steps.

Stay conscious of your body as much as possible. When you are

experiencing an emotion, be with it. Don't suppress it or make it wrong.

Make it fun to express your emotions and it will be fun to express your

emotions. Stay in awareness of how you feel and how others feel also.

When you feel unalive, it is a sign that you have dropped out of the

Five Steps. Take immediate action and get back in the Five Steps.

Practice makes an athlete a star. As a spiritual athlete, the more one

practices the Five Steps, the faster one achieves their goal of

enlightenment, ascension and peace.

Practice and share the Five Steps with your friends and loved ones. The

Joy Book was designed to change the world by assisting individuals in

changing themselves. As individuals become more joyful and

unconditionally loving of themselves, they become a bright light in a

not so light world. Their light and love will effect those around them

to the point where they will begin to change also.

As an individual, you have the ability to change the world. I invite you

to integrate the technology in this book into your life so that you too

may assist in the transformation of the planet. Organize your friends

and share the teachings of this book with them. Create networks of peace

and joy facilitators. Create programs so that you and others can

telepathically broadcast affirmations and thoughts of world peace and

prosperity continuously each day. Broadcast these affirmations in the

first, second and third person. Broadcast affirmations such as: The

world is in total peace. Everyone in the world is prosperous and well

fed. We are all safe. Use your intuitive sense and your spiritual

guidance and TOGETHER WE CAN TRANSFORM THE PLANET.
