RevGen Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Breast cancer.Got to have chemo.Terrified.You might want to Gift yourself with Thich Nhat Hanh's book No death, no fear (Riverhead Books, Penguin Putnam Inc., 2002). This is a song he has written (and includes in the book) that can be used as a guided meditation:"This body is not me; I am not caught in this body,I am life without boundaries,I have never been born and I have never died.Over there the wide ocean and the sky with many galaxiesAll manifests from the basis of consciousness.Since beginningless time I have always been free.Birth and death are only a door through which we go in and out.Birth and death are only a game of hide-and-seek.So smile to me and take my hand and wave good-bye.Tomorrow we shall meet again or even before.We shall always be meeting again at the true source,Always meeting again on the myriad paths of life."You can substitute "body, birth, death" with "cancer", "chemotherapy", "nausea", "pity", etc. to suit each moment that you encounter.If you are more mathematically minded, I have written these formulas that have been helpful to many "left" brains:You are Safe right now + it is Always "right now" = You are Always Safe.Everything is OK right now + it is Always "right now" = Everything is Always going to be OK.Sink Not SwimIf you find yourselfin a boat on the sea: sailing into theunknowable night,just be in the boat.If you find yourselfin a storm on the sea: tossed and battered,cold and afraid,just be in the storm.If you find yourselfthrown into the sea: just be in the sea.-S. West (from For My Friends, Big Nose Books, 2008)We'll think of you here at Wolf Circle...keep us all updated so we can keep the Vibe ringing on the best tones!G.

RabbiO Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 "Moses cried out to Adonai saying, 'G-d, I pray, please heal her (Ayl nah refah nah lah)'."This prayer is still said and used today in Jewish healing services.And I add this from Psalm 29 -יְהוָה--עֹז, לְעַמּוֹ יִתֵּן; יְהוָה, יְבָרֵךְ אֶת-עַמּוֹ בַשָּׁלוֹם. Adonai will grant strength to His people. Adonai will bless His people with peace.Shalom,PeterThank you all.Rabbi O, the Hebrew looks beautiful. Would you mind translating?
