 How do you "use" The Great Invocation? September 02, 2005 7:48 AM

It's always interesting to learn how people around the world use this powerful and important mantram.

This could be a "idea": you see the "theorical use" in the Topic: How you can "use" The Great Invocation and... in http://www.care2.com/c2c/groups/disc.html?gpp=3570&pst=152470

Here in this Topic you can "see" the "practice" how people around the world use this powerful and important mantram...

If someone "don't know exactly" how to use this powerful and important mantram he/she see here in this topic how people around the world use this powerful and important mantram and perhaps he/she can "use" The Great Invocation in a way that he/she don't know but he/she see in this Topic that people "use" it in that way...

So How do you “use” The Great Invocation?

G.I. September 04, 2005 4:11 AM

I use the G.I whenever I meditate, or when I allow the emotions or personality to get the better of me lol.

But we shouldn't forget other mantrams which we can utilise - as we think so we are

I am a point of light within a greater Light.
I am a strand of loving energy within the stream of love divine.
I am a point of sacrificial Fire, focussed within the fiery Will of God.
And thus I stand.
I am a way by which men may achieve.
I am a source of strength, enabling them to stand.
I am a beam of light, shining upon their way.
And thus I stand.
And standing thus revolve
And tread this way the ways of men,
And know the ways of God.
And thus I stand.

peace love n light

Usage September 04, 2005 9:44 AM

I use the GI every morning after my formal meditation, then in the evening when I do the Triangles meditation. For the two days before and after (and the day of) the Full Moon each month, we're asked to use the mantram at sunrise, noon and sunset. I love the Affirmation of the Disciple (above) I also use May the energy of the divine Self inspire me And the light of the Soul direct May I be led from darkness to Light From the unread to the Real And from death to Immortality. There are many wonderful mantras, but the Great Invocation is THE important one, it seems to me, whether you use the original or the revised version. Saying it each day is a true service to Hierarchy and Humanity. Namaste, ND  [ send green star]  [ accepted]

Perhaps someone "is curious" Meditation. What's a meditation?, How can I make a meditation?,...

To see the answers to that questions and the answers of another questions abou the meditation look the Topic Meditation: How to make "it"... in http://www.care2.com/c2c/groups/disc.html?gpp=3570&pst=180155

I "use The Great Invocation November 23, 2005 12:57 AM

 

Each day:

- To start the day: When I shave while I'm shaving myself I'm saying The Great Invocation (in the winter when they "change" the hour at 12:00*)

- At 13:00*

*Spanish time "in your place" I think it's 9 hours less so it will be at 04:00 (or at 5:00 when they change the time in 1 hour)

- When I "see" the news, you know that they say first all "bad news" (at least here in Spain is that way, i don't know in other countries) but I don't say orally The Great Invocation (it will be a "mess" if two people are speaking at the same time they can't clearly hear to the other one) so while I see in TV or listen in the radio the "bad news" I "think" (say mentally) The Great Invocation thinking that what I'm thinking, as I say mentally The Great Invocation will be a "reality" and will help "to solve that problem"

- You know after we eat we I brush the teeth.

OK, one time I “looked” at the clock and I see the time to think The Great Invocation is more or less 2 minutes. It’s advisable that we brush the teeth 2 minutes… Perfect! While I brush my teeth after lunch and after dinner I think The Great Invocation and when I finish thinking The Great Invocation it means that “the 2 minutes finished”

- At 21:00*

*Spanish time "in your place" I think it's 9 hours less so it will be at 13:00

- to finish the day: Before I go to bed/go to sleep I say The Great Invocation.

Perhaps someone “say”: You say (or think sometimes) The Great Invocation “a lot” of times.

It isn’t “too much”?

No. As much times you say (or think) it better and quicker will be the results.

And is "difficult/boring" to do this ALL days?

No. It's a routine just as for example All days we eat and all days we... it's eating "difficult/boring"? No. You get used to do "this". The same with this you get used to do this.

Perhaps this will give to some people a "idea" of how and when "use" The Great Invocation.
