Thus Wakes Zarathustra (20 min)

Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity

play

03/29/20 • 20 min

The Gathas, traditionally attributed to ancient Iran's Zarathushtra (Zoroaster) himself, is one of humanity's greatest literary and mystical monuments. Its author is on a mission to share the truth about reality and human's true nature and in the verses, preserved since the second millennium BCE, he sets down this profound wisdom from ancient Persia. While this meditation is not at all religious, it is Zarathustra's wisdom that undergirds and inspires this 20 minute guided meditation. The imagery and fundamental truths expounded in the Gathas are set here in the context of a personalized journey that allows you to experience and identify with your higher self, your true self.

The Breath of 📜🏺Pythagoras 👆✌️ (30 min)

Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity

play

12/13/20 • 30 min

The legendary Pythagoras from ancient Greece firmly believed that there was a beautiful underlying order to the universe. His insight was that this order was made of numbers and math and music. As far as we know, he was the first human being to have an insight which to this day drives the scientific method and the search for the numbers and deep mathematical relationships that explain physical foundations of our universe. But Mr. P. took it further than a simple insight that the natural or physical world could be explained by math. He believed that Nature follows a rational, beautiful logic, and human beings for some mysterious reason are tuned in to it. I'll help you synch up to these sacred numbers of One, Two, Three and Found and tune in to the harmony underlying them in this meditation.

🪐 Saturn - Distant Beauty (20 min)

Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity

play

10/25/20 • 20 min

Distant Saturn represents the completion of the spiritual journey, the final stage of awakening. But most people aren't at this stage and can't just switch to this level of consciousness at the snap of the fingers. This also means that to do a meditation that will take you to this level has to begin lower down, at the heart center in this case, and then move up. In this meditation, you are guided gently along this path ascending to the remote, beautiful celestial sphere we call Saturn.

🪐 Saturn - Distant Beauty (60 min)

Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity

10/25/20 • 60 min

Distant Saturn represents the completion of the spiritual journey, the final stage of awakening.

This also means that to do a meditation that will take you to this level has to begin lower down, at the heart center in this case, and then move up. In this meditation, you are guided gently along this path ascending to the remote, beautiful celestial sphere we call Saturn.


The ancient Assyrians called Saturn “Lubadsagush” which means "the oldest of the old” perhaps because of its slow movement across the sky and steady, lugubrious twinkle. The ancient Greeks named Saturn after Kronos, Jupiter's father in their mythology, implying more seniority in the celestial hierarchy than the Jovial, stately Jupiter. In the Islamic tradition, Saturn is associated with Abraham, the father of Jewish people. So we can say that Saturn represents the Father, or the God-head, that we associate with our Crown Chakra.

The Royal Blue Skies of Jupiter (10 min)

Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity

play

09/28/20 • 10 min

Ever wonder why the third eye Chakra is coded as the color Royal Blue? Jupiter, the Sky King, resonates with this frequency of light. In this meditation you can synch up with this frequency, with this color. The third eye is located at the center of the forehead, where sixth Chakra whirls away, and is associated not just with Royal Blue and the Jupiter of old, but also with the greatest prophets of old. Moses, Jesus, and Buddha are among those purported to have lived from this level of being. But this consciousness is not the domain just of extraordinary prophets. Each and every one of you can experience the unity and completeness characterized by this level of consciousness, or celestial sphere. This practice will help you on this journey.
