I am sharing two videos for you to study, if you so choose. REMEMBER, nothing I share is for belief or acceptance or liking. Neither is it for unbelief, disagreement or disliking. Yoga is inquiry into the Self with compassion. Know thyself.
Also……….Just like in yoga, there are three stages of learning and wisdom. The first two we can do together. The third is on you.
The first one is about the object of the game.
The second video is about the “landscape” of history from an interesting spiritual perspective.
Please read and review Lessons One and Two before this post.
I have been checking out a few shorter, more concise meditations. This first one is 12 minutes and I found it useful in “settling into” the process.

This second one is a the 18 breaths meditation. I suggest practicing with the video in the previous post to acclimate yourself to the process. It is 10 minutes in length.
So, check these out and let me know. Keep researching The Mer-Ka-Ba.
Ok……I found it! I found a very effective video which introduces The Mer-Ka-Ba and which is an excellent training video for The Mer-Ka-Ba Activation Meditation.
I suggest on your first viewing that you establish a drishti (a soft gaze) as you watch. Allow your eyes to close every once in awhile. When he takes you through the 17 breaths he may spend a lot of time on one breath. I believe it is designed this way as to be more of an initial training endevour rather than a guided meditation per se. Although, it is certainly both.
I am committing to watching this video every day for the next 3 days after which I will find and share a more condensed version to practice for the next 18 days adding up to 21. This takes me right up Thanksgiving day
As some of you know….it was Thanksgiving day 1976 when I was discharged from the hospital after spending a week going through a process of bringing my blood glucose level down from a critically dangerous level.
I got my first “shot” of insulin. I remember to this day the first time I gave myself an injection. I was sitting with the nurse and threw my hospital robe to the side exposing my left thigh. I filled the syringe and stuck it in. I clumsily put my thumb on the plunger and squeezed. It burned going in. It stung for a minute or two. I felt desperate and afraid.
I was discharged in the afternoon around 4pm. It was dark and rainy and cold. A typical late November day in Rochester, NY. All the leaves were gone. My eyesight was blurry because of the high blood sugars and the traffic lights were merging together. We (I think it was my father and I) arrived at my Aunt Karen’s house….not far from the hospital and before us was all the food laid out for our annual Thanksgiving feast.
I was put on a strict diet at the hospital. I could have some turkey and maybe one warm biscuit and some green beans. No more sweet potatoes or apple pie or cherry pie or whipped cream for me……..or so I thought then.
Why do I tell you this?
It is because my biggest desire is to be done with this dis-ease. While diabetes has been a curse it has also been a blessing in that it motivated me to awaken to the spiritual path and to stay on it. I know that my experience with my physical condition has a spiritual seed. I also know that because of this I can cure it. And I know this because I have learned from The Kabbalists that…..”Fulfillment is the Seed of Desire.” In that quote is a secret and with this secret I move forward.
Ok. So I know everyone is dealing with a lot right now. We are all “in the weeds” at some level. Perhaps, this training is the one needed right now? Perhaps not.
I am looking for ten others who will join me….Michael
In Hebrew it is spelled Merkavah meaning chariot, or vehicle. It is also defined as light, spirit or body.
In Egyptian, the word “Mer-Ka-Ba” is three words. Mer is a special kind of light, a counterrotating field of light; Ka means spirit; and Ba means “the interpretation of Reality,” which here on Earth means the human body.
According to Drunvalo Melchizedek, when you add all three words together, the Mer-Ka-Ba is a “Counterrotating field of light that will interact and translate the spirit and the body from one world into another, though it is really much, much more. It is the creation pattern itself through which all that exists has originated.” (The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life. Volume 2 p.309)
The Mer-Ka-Ba is the vehicle that holds the energy lines (prana) connecting our souls to God.
The Mer-Ka-Ba is a potential of the geometric fields of light and is created through consciousness. Less than 0.1 percent of humanity has an active Mer-Ka-Ba.
In the next lesson we will explore how to activate your Mer-Ka-Ba!!
We started this zoom yoga, meditation and ‘mapquesting’ group at the end of March 2020. The pandemic just hit and everyone was searching for ways to connect, share, help and do a little yoga inquiry.
The original name of the group was the “Atwater Yoga Group.” Those from NY will recognize that the name Atwater was the name of the road that went down to the lake to access the boat house. On the second floor of the boat house was our yoga room. What a special place……

There are many places from which to enter into the spiritual map. Here is one that provides a step-by-step understanding.
The language of the universe is mathematics. It doesn’t matter if you are good at math or not. Watch this to start your inquiry.
