If the spring has dried up go to that spring and stand near it and look to the east and hold either a gourd, cup or glass full of water, up to the sky and say:<\/p>\n<p>Prayer To Bring Water<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for this gift of life<br \/>\nThank you for the gift of water<br \/>\nWe appreciate this water that you have given<br \/>\nNow the earth is dry and the trees are crying,<br \/>\nPlease accept our offering of this water<br \/>\nPlease accept our apology for any harm done<br \/>\nthrough wrong speech &amp; action<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Pour some water on the ground.<br \/>\n\u00b7 Then, turn around and in each direction<br \/>\n\u00b7 Take four steps forward and repeat this prayer.<br \/>\n\u00b7 Step four steps back and turn to the next direction.<br \/>\n\u00b7 Repeat the prayer; doing this until you have prayed to all four directions.<\/p>\n<p>3). This level is done at night to see and hear the sounds of those who are crying. Pour fresh water in a special glass that you use just for the purpose of this practice. Before going to sleep go to each corner of your bedroom and offer a bit of smudge, incense, or smokeless incense.<\/p>\n<p>To each corner of the room make this offering prayer:<\/p>\n<p>May what is outgrown become compost for the wisdom seed to flourish and grow<br \/>\nMay what is outgrown become compost for the wisdom seed to flourish and grow<br \/>\nMay what is outgrown become compost for the wisdom seed to flourish and grow<\/p>\n<p>Take the glass of water to the window holding it up so you can see the moon; or if it is not visible hold it up, saying;<\/p>\n<p>This water, may it become medicine to benefit all beings<br \/>\nMay this water be a mirror that reveals all<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Sip the water<br \/>\n\u00b7 Put it beside your bed and as you are lying in bed review the day<br \/>\n\u00b7 Look at, how did I listen to others? Did I respect the people I met today?<br \/>\n\u00b7 See above you the light and bring it into your heart and central pathway<\/p>\n<p>The task in the dreamtime is to be able to raise your hands to the sky. This may take some time. What is significant in the dream body is to be able to raise your hands. Then you have awakened the awareness of the illusory body and the body of light. Through doing so you may benefit others through the dedication of your actions and the manifestation of ever more skillful methods.<\/p>\n<p>This awakening is also to bring rain. Once you get your hands up in the air in the dream body, then you invite the rain to fall in gentle ways to nourish the seeds of wisdom in the people. Pray for the sweet waters to flow to give the people all they need.<\/p>\n<p>When you wake up give thanks that another day has come, that the sun rises again, and hold the water up to the sun, giving thanks for this medicine:<\/p>\n<p>May this water flow through me as medicine<br \/>\nMay it return to the atmosphere as medicine<br \/>\nMay it return to the earth as medicine<\/p>\n<p>How we receive water is very precious because water is the gift of life.<\/p>\n<p>Close each level of practice with a prayer of dedication.<\/p>\n<p>May this benefit all beings in this and all worlds.<\/p>\n<p>Venerable Dhyani Ywahoo<br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Water Practice (3 levels) by Venerable Dhyani Ywahoo Dear community: Our planet and all our relations see more clearly that we are deeply connected as the oil from the asphalt&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/1072\/\" class=\"apace-readmore-link\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1,8],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1072"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1072"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1072\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1072"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1072"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vivesur.com\/wpblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1072"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
