The Idea of creative sound & the theory of vibration.

"As every living thing so to symbols have their periods of waxing & waning.

When their power has reached its zenith they descend into all paths of daily life.
Then other symbols take their place, while they retire into the inner circle of initiates, from whence they will be reborn when their time has come:

This is apparent when we move from our NLR level 1 symbols through the levels of 2 to 3. As we grow the symbols are integrated and we become ready for the level 3 symbols.
The Tamarasha is also a good example of an old Egyptian symbol still seen today etched into the walls of the pyramids many centuries ago and now being being revisited & used by us.
For each stage of our journey new symbols have allowed the transition from one stage of our spiritual growth to another.

This also shows that as the old must let go just as the seasons change to allow the renewal of life to give energy & a new vibrational resonance to allow the inner change to take place.

As each new change takes us to a new vibrational plane of life, depth of experience inner confidence, self worth is experienced, connection to the whole/ self realization .

Mantra can take us from one plane to of existence to the next.

The Mantra's power & meaning & is only for the initiated.
The experience of the mantra is only acquired through initiation & the teacher who provides the atmosphere for a student to gain understanding.
The uninitiated may utter the Mantra as often as he likes without producing the slightest effect.
Therefore Mantras may be printed in books by the thousands without giving away their secret or loosing their value.
This is also relevant to the NLR Seichim symbols which are now commonly found in printed material around the world.
The qualities needed from the students is sincere faith and deep respect for yourself and all things spiritual.

Newlife Seichim Sekhem Level 3 Meditiation Retreat...

Hi to the NLR level 3 students. I thought it might be helpful to you to start a blog for information and discussion purposes regarding the reading material set by the course.
I thought a good place to start is with the "Foundation of Tibetan Mysticism" book.
The 5 Buddha families give particular expression to the relevance of working with these Buddhas in understanding their creative nature and their connectedness to all life.

Vairocana: Who embodies wisdom of the Universal Law.

Vairocana works the sacred sound of speech and this section of the book refers to the word OM.

Within the sounding of OM; representation of the apex of the pyramid becomes apparent through the melody and rhythm with the all embracing vibration of the sacred sound.
Working with OM allows ascending from the material and emotional planes to the spiritually enlightened state of unification.

This state represents freedom from desire and attachments and is also known as; "a state of deathlessness a sorrowless state where there is neither birth nor old age". This state or aim cannot be reached without giving up what constitutes our so-called self / attachments to material objects, people etc or the ego.

We will be working with sacred sounds each day throughout the workshop in our meditations and with the 10 days this time will allow a significant change to take place within.

Please ask for help and discuss issues as they arise if you need to. A dairy of your experiences will be a valuable asset on this journey. Even starting your journal from now will be helpful.

Warm regards Lee
