“We can align with our Higher Self… contribute love, balance, wisdom, and
positive energy to everyone in our life…
Let’s
harmonize and transform our world… liberate our potential with Powerforms™”
Q. What are Powerforms?
A. Powerforms are subtle-energy tools that help us align with our Higher Self.
Powerforms help us release chaotic energy that is not in alignment with our
essence. This energy is re-patterned into more harmonious energy that is in
alignment with our true self.
We
can hold Powerforms in our hands, place them in our pocket, place them near
us, put them on our body, or move them through the aura. If we place them on a
picture-easel on our desk, they create a field of high-quality conscious
energy.
The
result: As we become more harmonized and aligned with our potential, we can
contribute love, balance, wisdom, and positive energy to everyone in our life.
Q. How do the Powerforms affect my
life, and those in my life?
A. Were we to clairvoyantly observe our energy field, we might discover blockages
that filter our deeper awareness. These blockages prevent us from knowing our
potential, and create subtle irritation in our bodies, emotions, and minds.
The Powerforms help dissolve blockages of energy so that our potential can
manifest more easily. Of course, the source of our potential is not from the
Powerforms themselves – rather the source is divine, and exists within us
all.
As we
manifest our potential, we are able to contribute to life in a more
clear-headed, positive way. Powerforms help us experience greater insight,
deeper harmony, and this enhances our every thought, feeling, and action. We
contribute higher quality to everyone in our world from a deep wellspring of
love and harmony. All this doesn’t happen in an instant. Our development is
gradual, and occurs on a daily basis.
When
we realize that our evolution is unfolding daily, we can relax and “enjoy
the ride” more easily. Powerforms help us release energy blockages and
transmute distorted energies, so that we can use our valuable time bringing
positive energy, positive ideas, and positive actions to our world.
Q. How do I know which Powerforms
device to use? What are the essential differences between the Powerforms?
A.1:
• The Activator Disk – awakening
to life…
The
Activator awakens our chakras and meridians with our own positive chi (or
prana, or life-energy). It filters non-harmonic life-force energies, and
re-patterns unbalanced chi into refined chi. The Activator assists us to
attune with our own positive energy – each Activator user discovers their
own unique essential vibrations. We can place the Activator on our chakras, or
place it anywhere on our body. We can sit upon the Activator to activate
flowing energy in the spine, and we can carry it in our pocket.
When
conscious intent is used with the Activator, it assists in all projects
requiring activation. When combined with the Balancer and Portal, and with
stones and crystals, the Activator is a catalyst – the spark that
“ignites” any process.
A.2:
• The Balancer Plate – harmony
with the earth plane…
The
Balancer brings our yin and yang into balance. It resolves inner conflict by
unifying our yin and yang – alchemically creating our own balanced
expression of yin/yang union. Each of us can discover our own personal
inner-peace vibration. The Balancer, especially when used at the soles of the
feet and palms of the hands, unifies the mind and body. Excessive mental
chatter is quieted, and we feel safer in our physical body.
The Balancer can be placed anywhere
on the body – it can be held in our hand and gently moved through the aura
or through the room to clear energy blockages – and it can be held in our
hands to center our energy as we meditate, pray, focus, or simply relax.
When intent is used with the
Balancer, it assists all projects requiring grounding, centering, harmony, and
peace.
A.3:
• The Portal Plate – opening
to our potential & our infinite self…
The
Portal filters earthly delusions so that we can be and express our infinite
soul-self more easily. The Portal is mainly used with intent – it works with
us to help us attune, manifest, and be our highest truth. When the earthly
limitations are bypassed, our mind and spirit can soar freely, as we discover,
create, and allow our essence to manifest itself and all it seeks to express.
The
Portal works in teamship with the Activator (the catalyst) and Balancer
(stabilizing and unifying). Examples: Sit on the Balancer and/or Activator,
while doing positive-intent meditations with the Portal. Or, we place each of
the three devices on a small picture-tripod in a triangular arrangement –
with ourselves sitting in the center of this arrangement. This creates a large
field with which our own positive intent can interact.
We
may place the Portal in front of ourselves to interact with it – we need not
be in physical contact with it. The Portal’s field is fairly large, and it
can be on a table before us, or on a small tripod picture frame facing us. The
column energy field that extends from both faces of the Portal is the real
power of the Portal. It is this exquisitely tuned energy field that we
interact with when we use our positive intention. Affirmations,
visualizations, and blessings, all interact with the Portal field.
•
Here is a four-step process we can use to create “homeopathic”
spiritual-healing energies with the Portal:
1.) Using our imagination, we imagine lifting a little bit of “stuck energy”
from the body and we place it in the Portal energy column.
2.) Move the stuck energy up and down the column until the energy purifies.
3.) Return the purified energy to the body. We move it up and down our body until
we feel a breath release – the breathing becomes deeper. This signifies that
integration has occurred.
4.) Continue steps a, b, & c – the energy refines & heals at a deeper
level.
Q. How do Powerforms work?
A. The Powerforms are able to enhance our own unique “energy signature”, so
that each of us has our own personal experience when we work with the
Powerforms. Each of us has the potential to explore our own special
soul-resonance. As we increase the rapport we each have with our own soul, it
becomes easier to recognize the positive soul essence of others. The
Powerforms are likely to facilitate world peace through resonance with a
deeper truth that embraces both our individuality and our shared spiritual
oneness.
The
Powerforms work via resonance. Each Powerforms device is a series of tuned
antennas, combined with various proprietary materials and elements. The tuning
process is laborious, but well worth the time involved. Shape, size,
positioning, materials, and layering are all involved. Each device is
interacting with energy in many dimensions, and so it is necessary to
fine-tune the ways in which energy flows through the device: up and down, side
to side, front to back, low to high frequencies, etc.
The
antennas have a natural affinity with positive universal energy. Each device
“steps down” universal energy so that it is available to us. In addition,
the devices “step up” chaotic energy, so the energy becomes purified. This
allows us to let go of negative energy more easily.
Q. How did the Powerforms devices
come to be created?
A. Throughout the 70’s I experimented with yoga, meditation, and pyramids. By
1985 I realized that the energy tools available were limited to the basic
formats of simple pyramids and crystals. I evolved the Powerforms energy-tool
concept in the same way that I developed my private practice as a Soul
Integration™ practitioner and teacher. By spending hours daily in meditation
with the universe, I was able to develop rapport with energy itself. This
universal energy is within, and can be accessed within us all.
I
continue to invent in this manner today – working with the consciousness of
energy and vibration. It is somewhat like a non-verbal internal conversation.
It embodies the combined experience of creating architecture, music, dance,
and energy-balancing treatments, – although it is not any of these things.
Though it involves a form of rigorous energetic testing on the inner plane, it
may or may not be considered a scientific process, depending on whether your
definition of science is purely materialistic, or includes higher
consciousness as well. This is the best way I can explain it.
The
original devices I created were tuned pyramidal structures in 1985. By 1988
the first disk devices were created, but they were not ready for production
until 1991. Most of my work in the forseeable future will involve disks and
energy plates. The Powerforms company was created in 1991 to make my
inventions available to all of us who are ready for manifesting greater depth,
higher consciousness, and deeper meaning in our lives.
Q. How have you been able to create
well-tuned subtle energy devices?
A. Because the devices are resonating with non-physical universal energies, it is
necessary to be able to track the energy’s activity as it flows through the
device. My decades of experience as an energy practitioner and teacher of
spiritual activation have been invaluable in helping me with this task. Also,
my years of study in art and music have proved useful in attuning my
consciousness to subtle energy. This may involve listening to the harmonics,
seeing their energy radiance, and, most importantly, feeling the subtle energy
shifts as the devices are tuned. Through this combined method of feeling,
seeing, and hearing the energies, adjustments may be made in the Powerform
prototype until it is perfected and made available to the world.
Q. Why “Powerforms”? Don’t we
have too much emphasis on “power” in the world?
A. We lack real power in the world. People have felt dis-empowered because the
energy blockages within us interfere with our ability to acknowledge and
utilize our inner infinite spiritual capacity. Historical examples of harsh
use of power do not reflect true power, which is formed from the components of
love, wisdom, and (healthy) will-power. The “power” in Powerforms refers
to balanced healthy power, which is available to us all when we access our
potential.
Powerforms
also refers to the various antennas and the way in which they are arranged and
layered in the energy devices. The antenna shapes (or “forms”), when
well-tuned and correctly layered, allow our inner spiritual power to emerge,
for the betterment of all.
Q. What are the Powerforms made of?
A. The disks are layers of silica fiber (which is actually glass), yet very tough
and somewhat flexible. The metal copper is used, although other metals may be
used in the future. Recently a form of silica which is proprietary to
Powerforms has been added to the Activator disk. This addition is not visible,
and only a small but effective amount is used. This form of silica adds a
quality to the disks which makes them somewhat similar to quartz crystals. In
the future this may be added to the other disks as well. Other elements from
the earth may be explored in the future also.
Q. Are the Powerforms made with
magnets or magnetic material?
A. No magnetic materials are used in the Powerforms. Although experts are able to
do good healing work with magnets, I have personally found magnets to be too
strong and too blunt in their energetic properties for the subtle results I
prefer. In addition, some have found that magnets produce an over-charged
effect when over-used or mis-used. We can use our intuition, our
“gut-feeling”, a pendulum, or kinesiology when determining which energy
devices to use and how to use them for our situation.
Q. How are the Powerforms different
from crystals, tachyons, and purple plates?
A. Crystals, especially those grown naturally in the earth, each have their own
personality. This is both beneficial, and a limitation. If we find an
excellent crystal, we can work with it as a part of our “healing team”.
However, that crystal is distinct from all other crystals. By contrast, each
Powerform of a particular type (such as all Activator Disks) are basically the
same.
Many
find that the Powerforms have quite a “personality”. This is because their
many well-tuned components activate our own higher energy. Thus, when we work
with the Powerforms, we are working with the deeper aspects of our own
personality and soul. We may find that as we work with our Powerforms, the
devices function at a deeper level with our soul. The greater rapport we
develop with the Powerforms is really a deeper connection with our own
spiritual essence – our infinite potential.
The
Powerforms are particularly well suited to being combined with crystals.
Crystals may be placed on the Powerforms, as described in the Activator and
Balancer instruction books. This results in a hybrid crystal-disk device. The
Powerforms cleanse, tune, and “evolve” crystal energy well.
Tachyons
are powerful devices which have benefited many people. Many have achieved good
results by placing them on the Powerforms. Use your intuition when combining
powerful devices and avoid over-charge. Experiment for short periods of time.
Combining devices is like combining personalities in a room. Although the
Powerforms are tuned to work with each other, combining tachyons adds a level
of power that may be appropriate for some purposes, and too harsh for others.
There is no “rule”. Rather, your feelings and intuition are the key.
People trained in pendulums, kinesiology, or dowsing may help you determine
how to safely use energy devices.
Purple
plates are used by many healing students and practitioners for cleansing and
activating food, objects, and the body itself. It is possible that they may be
combined with crystals, tachyons, and Powerforms devices. Any time you are
combining devices, use your intuition, and notice how you feel. Avoid
over-charge, and avoid creating chaotic energy fields. Trust your inner
feelings and the “small still voice within” as you work.
Q. Are the Powerforms inventions
that are “channeled”?
A. Channeling implies opening to a source of information outside of the self. I
do not believe this to be the highest way to work. Rather, we all have the
capacity to draw upon the universal knowingness within us. The universe is
truly within us all. Through communication with the inner intelligence, it is
possible to work both creatively and methodically to develop inventions,
concepts, and realities.
Q. Are the Powerforms developed in
a “flash of insight”?
A. The long process of development is a combination of (as Edison might have put
it) 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Even Tesla, who is reputed to have
invented in his head, and later made his prototypes on the basis of his mental
images, spent long hours perfecting his creations.
Q.
Do the geometric forms on the surface of the Powerforms symbolize anything?
A. The forms are one of the components that affect the functioning of the
Powerforms, however they do not “symbolize” anything. Rather, the forms
have functions which are more like a set of integrated components. Just as a
finely crafted tool has components which work together in a smooth way to
generate various results, the Powerforms contain many functional tools that
work together to interact with energy and create positive transformation.
Q. I think I’ve seen similar forms
in ancient hieroglyphics, ancient art, etc. Are you using ancient forms?
A. I prefer to create on the basis of the needs of the Powerforms device. It is
possible that timeless wisdom, which exists throughout time and space, causes
certain inventor’s works to share some superficial similarity, however.
Were
I to examine certain ancient forms, I would probably re-tune them to the needs
of modern times. In addition, I scan everything used in the Powerforms for
“appropriateness”, and am unlikely to use any “found” forms as is. It
is actually easier to create new forms, because it is easier to tune them for
a new device, for the highest good.
Q. I think I’ve seen geometric
arrangements in my dreams. Is this possible?
A. It is entirely possible. Many people have said that they have seen something
similar to the Powerforms in their dreams. However, they were not seeing the
actual Powerforms. Rather, they were seeing, most likely, the universal energy
of consciousness refracted through their own awareness. This can be a
beautiful meditative experience.
Q. What are the virtues of
“powerful devices” versus “subtle devices”?
A. Devices intended to be strong in their effects may seem to “do the job”,
however they may over-charge the user. In addition, I have a concern that
devices that are too strong may blunt the subtle sensitivities of the user, in
the same way that music that is too loud has an “effect”, but dulls the
awareness of the listener.
In
the long term, I feel that subtle devices are safer and help us cultivate our
awareness with more finesse and depth.
The
Powerforms may generally be categorized as subtle devices, as they are
intended to help us become more aware of our potential. They are not intended
to have an intense effect. However, some people do find that they benefit best
from using Powerforms for shorter periods of time. Though the Powerforms are
subtle, sensitive people may become activated in a way that they might regard
as powerful.
Do
not be “heroic” when using any energy device. That which feels too mild
for one person may be too strong for another person. We can use common sense
and notice how we feel when we work with any device.
Q. How do I know how long to use the
Powerforms devices? Is a short period better? Can I use them all day?
A. Each of us is unique. We all need to learn how to trust our inner awareness so
that we can notice how we feel when we use energy devices. Try holding one of
the Powerforms devices for ten minutes and notice what happens. It may seem
very subtle, or very distinct in its effects. The Powerforms help us attune to
deeper aspects of our divine essence self. Many people have found that when
they bring “intent” to their Powerforms activities, the results are more
defined. This is because the Powerforms work best when combined with positive
intent. We may find, in time, that positive intent is appropriately combined
with all activities in our life.
Q. How do I know if I am using the
Powerforms correctly? Couldn’t you give more exact protocol for usage in the
instructions?
A. Powerforms energy tools create a conduit between the universe, our own
awareness, and the vibrations of the energy tool itself. Thus the results are
a co-creation. Each moment that we work with energy tools is unique, and can
not be exactly anticipated. Usage is more an art than a science. Specific
rules may interfere with our ability to learn to trust our intuition.
Don’t
worry – we can’t “make a mistake”. Let’s allow ourselves to relax
and explore when we use energy tools (while utilizing common sense, of
course). Discover the wisdom within. Be creative… Slow down… Notice the
subtle nuances of the experience. We can talk with our higher self, and even
explore communicating with the “higher self” of the Powerforms themselves.
For that matter, let’s try blessing and recognizing the intelligence within
everything in our lives. Experience the joy of discovery in each moment –
the recognition of consciousness within all.
Q. Has the inventor placed his or
anyone’s energy in the device, such as some ancient shaman’s were known to
do?
A. On the contrary, I have gone out of my way to make a neutral device that has
none of my energy, and no energy of any person or being. It is important to me
that this be a personal device for each user. I have tuned it as best as I can
so that each of us is able to have our own positive personal experience with
the highest and best energies in the universe – in the way that we each
prefer to experience them.
The
Powerforms work as filters that remove chaotic energies, allowing us to tune
more easily into the positive realities we choose to align with. We can
experience our own higher self in greater depth when we use Powerforms
devices. As we explore with the Powerforms, we find greater alignment with our
own unique soul energy.
Q. Why do you suggest that I
interact with the device? Wouldn’t it be easier if I just let the device do
all the work?
A. The Powerforms devices can be experienced in “passive mode” – in other
words, we don’t “have” to interact with them. However, to get the best
from any subtle energy device, please realize that “passive mode” only
gives us a fraction of the value that is possible. At the highest level,
subtle energy tools help us attune to the deeper positive essence of our self
and of our world. Please discover what is possible. This liberates us to know
ourselves and to do even greater good in the world.
We
live in a “free-will universe”. This means that a device can’t “second
guess” what we want. The purpose of a free-will universe is to help us learn
to activate our “creation capacity”. Were external forces to do everything
for us, our own creative forces would atrophy and weaken. I encourage everyone
to consciously interact with the Powerforms – in so doing, we discover much
about our inner gifts, and can access our potential to help everyone in our
life.
Q.
When I use the Activator Disk, at times, I feel relaxed. Sometimes when I use
the Balancer Plate I feel energized. How can this be? Am I having the wrong response?
A. We are each having the right response in each moment. Sometimes, when the
Activator Disk smoothes the life energy within our body, aura, and chakras, we
may respond in our own unique way: Some of us may feel energized from the
energy flow, and some may feel relaxed.
When
we experience the generally centering/calming effects of the Balancer, we can
relax more deeply in our body. As we experience the deep well of energy in our
body, we may feel energized! This is not paradoxical – it is just one of the
wonderful experiences that we can have as we explore the world of energy.
At
times we may feel one response today, and a different response tomorrow.
Rather than regarding Powerforms as “buttons” that make us go “on and
off”, let’s consider that Powerforms are doorways to deeper aspects of
ourselves. We exist on many subtle inner levels. Let’s explore and discover.
The many levels of self may seem confusing at first, but we always have our
common sense and intuition to make sense of any experience we have.
If an
experience seems to be “too much”, we can easily place the energy devices
away from our body for a while so we can “digest” our energy experiences.
Slow abdominal breathing to center ourselves is a time-honored practice.
Consider
that our multi-faceted nature is something to enjoy, celebrate, and explore.
How much more enjoyable it is to be a wondrous living energy-being than an
android that can be turned on and off!
Q. Are the Powerforms a substitute
for spiritual development?
A. Spiritual development requires our awareness. Subtle energy devices can create
an environment in which we can experience attunement with deeper realities,
with God, with nature, and with the heart of humanity. Powerforms can create
an energy environment in which it is easier to access our spiritual
potential… However, devices can not substitute for our awareness.
The
story of Atlantis (whether it really existed or not) describes a culture that
substituted technological advancement for spiritual and moral development. We
can learn from this, and choose to use energy tools to safely support our
spiritual evolution. If we believe that energy tools are “the sole cause”
of our spiritual growth, we have given our power away to a force outside
ourselves. To regain our power, we align with the true purpose of Powerforms
usage: To help us cultivate our deeper awareness, so that we can access our
potential for the highest good.
Awareness
is the key. Awareness opens the doorway to discovering inner peace, a
wellspring of creativity, and alignment with our soul’s love and wisdom. As
long as we cultivate awareness, Powerforms can be a safe, appropriate method
of discovering our potential and contributing positive energy to everyone on
the planet.
Q. Can the Powerforms heal physical
diseases?
A. Powerforms, by themselves, do not create healing. Powerforms help create
harmony – greater unity with our higher self, with nature, and with the
divine. According to holistic theory, harmony is a state in which we are
aligned – our body, emotions, thoughts, and soul work together. We feel
attuned with the planet and with people, and are confident that we have a
useful place in the world. We feel a spiritual connection with the universe
and with everything in it.
Powerforms
energy tools help chaotic energy in our bodies and auras re-pattern into
smooth harmonious energy.
Powerforms
are a useful adjunct to our healthy lifestyle – involving nutrition,
exercise, meditation/contemplation, right livelihood, right thought/ action,
and right use of will, etc. No external authority can tell us precisely just
what right action, etc. means for us – only our Inner Self (comprising our
Higher Self, the “still small voice”, and our inner feelings) can discover
our truth. The discovery of our inner truth is an ever evolving process that
unfolds and evolves daily throughout our lives.
Holistic
theory suggests that when we experience harmony, we can experience well-being
on all levels. However, the wellness results from the harmony – and not
directly from the energy devices themselves.
Our
every thought, feeling, and action, contributes, to some degree, to our state
of being. We may choose to utilize energy devices to help contribute to our
wellness, but we do not “give our power away” to energy devices. Energy
devices are here to assist us in our wellness, but energy devices are not the
source of our wellness.
Q. People who have used the
Powerforms during meditation have reported that the devices seem to
“filter” out the chaos of the “group mind”. How does this work, and
what are the benefits of filtering?
A. Many of our beliefs have been acquired through resonance with the group mind
of the planet. This is the combined thought-energy of everyone on the earth,
including those now living, those from the past, and earthbound spirits as
well. Many of these thought-patterns are not aligned with our highest truth.
As we work with the Powerforms we may find an inner silence, inner clarity, or
smooth inner texture within us. We are experiencing our own energy, free of
the noise of the mass consciousness.
There
are an infinite number of higher positive realities. They co-exist with our
present reality. We can more easily resonate with these higher positive
realities as we release the negative aspects of the mass consciousness from
our energy fields.
As we
cultivate our individual path, we discover that we are able to contribute to
the evolution of the planet more effectively – at times contributing to
group efforts, at times working as individuals. Aligning with our unique
essence is not in conflict with planetary awareness – our unique essence
exists for a reason. Our uniqueness is key to contributing to the group
consciousness for the highest good. Powerforms help us release limiting energy
patterns, so that we can align with our unique path and bring positive energy
and transformation to everyone in our life.
Q. Are the Powerforms scientifically
tested, or is all the evidence for their benefits anecdotal?
A. I have always trusted my intuition when working with energy devices, and I
trust that Powerforms users are working in a similarly intuitive way. When in
doubt, I am more inclined to ask healers and sensitives about their
experiences. My concern with scientific testing is that it is limited to the
range of the test. For instance, many people have reported that when they
place the Balancer on a television set, or on a computer, they feel their aura
and body energy becoming smoother, as if the Balancer cancelled out some of
the chaotic frequencies that radiate from electronic appliances. However, if
we test the Balancer to see if it cancels electro-magnetic radiation, we find
that it does not. What does this mean?
It
would seem that on some octave of the frequency range, the Balancer is able to
create harmony. Evidently this beneficial range is not in the radioactive
range. However, many sensitive people can feel the difference. If any of us
are interested in conducting scientific tests, we may feel free to do so,
bearing in mind that any test only shows phenomena within a limited range.
I did
see one test utilizing equipment used by electro-acupuncturists. It showed
that the Balancer helped people get more balanced readings on the
electro-acupuncture analyzer. In other words, when the meridian was too
strong, it became milder, and when it was too low in energy, it was boosted.
As impressive as this may sound to some, I feel that there are many ways to
bring the meridians into balance. In my opinion there are deeper uses for the
Balancer. It would be limiting to regard the Balancer as merely a meridian
balancing device. I encourage you to discover how you benefit from the
Powerforms. Share any methods for Powerforms usage with your friends, family,
and clients.
Q. Aren’t all the Powerforms
results, even if they may be real, all in the mind? Couldn’t the mind
utilize its power to accomplish any of the claimed benefits?
Is the “placebo effect” able to
account for all the results that people get with subtle energy devices?
A. These are wonderful questions because they introduce us to the topic of
consciousness. There is consciousness within ourselves, within all matter, and
within all space. Everything, in other words, is consciousness. And, that
consciousness is potentially infinite. This being so, it would seem that our
minds could accomplish anything. Of course, the mind can. However, on the
physical plane, there are apparent limits to our consciousness. For instance,
our minds work more effectively when we eat healthy food. Nutritious food
brings our bodies to a higher rate of vibration, so that every aspect of our
selves can resonate with higher truth more easily. Harmonious surroundings, as
taught in the ancient art of Feng Shui, literally re-shape our consciousness
by helping us access our potential more easily.
And
yet, the question continues to arise, couldn’t we use our minds to over-ride
the effects of poor nutrition and negative surroundings? Well, to an extent,
we could. Of course, why would we want to make it difficult for ourselves? If
it is easier to work and play in harmonious pleasant surrounds, fueled by
vibrant nutritious food, would we not prefer this?
I
believe the “debate” between those who claim they can do everything with
their minds, versus those who feel that food, surroundings, and energy tools
are required is easily resolved:
Although
we theoretically could “do everything with our mindpower”, we have even more mindpower available when we utilize nutritious food, pleasant surroundings,
and allow ourselves to benefit from Powerforms subtle energy devices. Consider
that everything has an element of “mind-stuff” within it. This means that
nutritious food has more intelligence in it than junk food. This means that
harmonious surroundings tune our consciousness so that it can work even more
efficiently. And Powerforms represent a unique form of physical matter that is
composed both of physical matter and cosmic consciousness.
Powerforms
have been called “personal feng-shui devices” because they provide for our
body and aura some of the benefits a feng-shui practitioner can provide for
our environment. Powerforms are themselves highly intelligent, because they
resonate with the universe in a harmonious way. Of course, they don’t do our
thinking for us. The Powerforms do create an environment in which the inner
wisdom of our soul, mind, emotions and body can function even more
effectively.
If
some of us still insist that we can do everything with our mind, which mind is
being referring to? Is it intelligent to eat junk food, claiming that we can
transmute it with our mind? Is it intelligent to live in chaos, claiming that
feng-shui is unnecessary for the functioning of our consciousness?
Our
surroundings in which we exist this moment are filled with consciousness. If
we really care about developing our mind, let’s feel free to benefit from
nutritious food, harmonious surroundings, and Powerforms. All these beneficial
elements in our life allow us to more easily maximize our inner resources for
the benefit of our family, friends, colleagues, and the world.
Q. I don’t need Powerforms to
attune to God, or connect with my intuition. What, then, is the value of such
devices?
A. We don’t “need” Powerforms, in the same sense that we do need water and
air. Yet, when we utilize Powerforms we may find that our bodies and minds are
in greater harmony. We may find that our energy flows more smoothly. We may
find greater unity between body, mind, and soul. This increases the
possibility that we may have experiences that are deeper and more profound.
The
value of Powerforms is their capacity to increase the Quality of our
experiences, and thus the quality of our life. When we have less chaotic
energy interfering with our perception, we can connect with God and with our
intuition that much more easily. And this is a good thing.
Q. How can two people, each using
the same Powerforms device, utilizing the same technique, each get different
results?
A. Powerforms subtle energy devices create an environment in which our individual
energy system can function more efficiently. Of course, our individual
aura-field is unique. Perhaps, to use an example with the Activator Disk, we
find that after using it for an hour we feel gently energized. However, our
friend feels over-energized after using the Activator for an hour. And yet
another friend finds that they become somewhat spacey. Consider the energetic
situation in each case:
Our
two friends, both the one that felt over-energized, and the one that felt
spacey, have exceeded the optimum time period for Powerforms usage. They can
place the Activator away from their body until they need it again. Our two
friends, each having their unique response, can observe their responses, and
adjust their Powerforms usage according to their needs. Of course, on a
different day, their responses may be different.
We
each have our own unique energy needs. Even energy tools which manufacturers
claim are appropriate for “any amount” of usage, are capable of
overloading my system with over-use. Of course there is no rule regarding
energy device usage which will apply to everyone. For that reason, I trust my
feelings and inner wisdom more that manufacturer’s claims.
I
always encourage everyone to use their intuition, their gut sense, and their
common sense when using crystals, plates, disks, tachyons, and any other
device. Think about it: if someone tells us to eat apples every minute of the
day, our common sense tells us that this is excessive. However, that doesn’t
mean that apples should be avoided. Let’s allow our inner wisdom help us
make decisions. Whether we call this inner wisdom a hunch, common sense, the
small still voice within, God, the inner light, or any other name, we do have
a way of knowing when it is appropriate to use a device, and when we have had
enough for the day.
As I
write this, I’m sitting on a device called the Portal Plate, which is
helping me access intuition more easily. The source of the intuition isn’t
the Portal. The source is divine infinite consciousness – which is within us
all. For the moment, the Portal Plate helps my body hold a higher, harmonious
vibration, and I am grateful and delighted that it is available to assist me
in sharing my experiences with you.
On
other occasions I have sat upon an Activator Disk as I write. To refresh my
energy while I work, I gently fan my chakras with an Activator, Balancer, or
Portal every so often to clear stale energy and repattern it into positive
energy. And on other occasions, I do not utilize any devices. There is no
fixed rule, except one: We have the intuitive capacity to know deep within
ourselves what is best for us at any moment.
Q. My friends have vivid inner
experiences with the Powerforms, and I just feel somewhat relaxed, or on
occasions, just a little more energy flow. Am I missing something, or are my
friends overly dramatic in their descriptions?
A. As we work with Powerforms, our energy blockages gradually re-pattern into
harmonious energy. This increases our ability to perceive our inner energetic
and spiritual essence with greater clarity and depth. However, we have been
subjected to a lifetime of materialistic teachings that do not recognize the
reality of energy – it may take some time for us to “permit” ourselves
to acknowledge our subtle inner energy realms.
Without
judging our experiences, or lack of them, we can honor our experience as valid
and good. When we bless our experience, and allow ourselves to notice the
subtle energies that we are able to sense, we become more easily able to
discover the subtle energy world. It becomes easier, once we allow ourselves
to trust our inner sensings. We can take it one easy step at a time.
If we
become aware of something subtle, we can notice the “texture” of the
energy. We can notice any feelings and thoughts that emerge, however subtle
they may be. We may become aware of the subtle color – the vibrations – of
our inner world. As we explore and honor our experiences, we discover just how
easily we can work and play with our inner awareness.
A
“fringe benefit” of subtle inner awareness is that it is very much like
meditation – it brings us to a place of inner richness, depth, and calm.
This quality radiantly shines from our body and soul. The radiance brings the
gifts of our Higher Self – love, harmony, and wisdom, to everyone we meet in
our daily life.
Q. My friends still insist that they
don’t want to become “dependant” on spiritual tools. They say they want
to develop their natural mental and spiritual powers. How do I respond to
them?
A. Let’s agree with our friends, because it is good to develop our
spiritual awareness. Powerforms are a healthy adjunct to the development of
our awareness. Our friends may still believe that the physical world is
inherently different from the world of spirit. But this spiritual/physical
conflict doesn’t exist… its all One. Powerforms are in a special category
of higher consciousness tools. We might call them physical, or we might call
them spiritual. Don’t worry, and don’t argue with people.
When
our friends say that they can do everything with their mindpower, let’s
agree with them. They are right… mind is infinitely powerful. Of course,
when our friends travel from Florida to Oregon maybe they’ll walk instead of
taking a plane – just to show that they’re not dependant on machines! But
seriously, do recognize that everyone has their own path. If you are attracted
to the Powerforms, do so in a non-dogmatic way. Bless everyone, and honor the
truth and wisdom within all.
Q. Why do the Powerforms models
change from time to time? Are the older models still useful? Must I switch to
the new models?
A. The Powerforms improve periodically because I continue to explore ways to make
them more effective. However, it would be silly to discard a perfectly good
Powerforms device that still works. We can keep older models in our
collection. Notice that there are subtle differences between the older and
newer models. Some people find that their older models are more suited to some
applications. Naturally I’m excited and delighted about the newer models,
but let’s trust our inner wisdom. Don’t be a slave to the consumer
culture. Ask the higher self when making a purchase of Powerforms or anything
else. Our inner wisdom will help us make the distinction between “needs”
and “wants”.
Q. Do I need to read and practice
all of the instructions that come with the Powerforms? Can I safely change or
modify the methods? What if I practice the methods “incorrectly”?
A. Relax – its nearly impossible to do it “incorrectly”. These are subtle
energy tools – not rocket ships. The instructions are general suggestions to
help us begin our explorations. When we work with Powerforms energy tools
we’re also learning to trust our inner feelings and intuition. Let’s take
our time. Some of us are naturally able to sense subtle energy, and for some
of us it feels so subtle at first that we wonder if we’re just making it all
up.
We
don’t have to read all the instructions. We can just explore one or two
methods and find out what happens. Of course, if energy exploration is a new
concept, our first discoveries may feel very subtle – and so it helps if we
are patient with ourselves.
As we
explore the methods, we can feel free to change the methods to suit our style
of exploring energy. We may choose to emphasize one part of the exercise over
another. Or, we may find new applications that aren’t mentioned in the
instructions. The more we explore, the easier it becomes.
Working
with energy is more “art” than “science”, although that doesn’t mean
that a lackadaisical attitude will get results. Working with energy involves a
balanced state some have called “the zone” – a state in which we are
alert, creative, relaxed, and open to both our rational mind and our
intuition. Sound like a lot? Let’s take our time… The Powerforms will help
us learn.
We
can even ask the Powerforms questions. This may sound silly, but when we talk
to the Powerforms, we’re just talking to our own higher intelligence. The
Powerforms refine our own thought energy so that we can contact our own higher
self more easily.
Q. What happens if I combine the
various Powerforms?
A. Generally, we explore the Powerforms one by one, so that we can become
familiar with each of their characteristic energies. When we are ready to
combine them, we explore various Powerforms combinations – in the spirit of
discovery and play. We can hold two different Powerforms in our hands, and
notice how the energy flow shifts in our body and mind. We can place two or
more Powerforms on our body, and quietly explore the internal shifts. We can
hold them in our hands and gently move them through our auras and through the
room.
As
we notice the subtle experiences available to us, we become aware of the ways
that the Powerforms interact with each other and with our own energy. Some of
us prefer to utilize the Powerforms one at a time, and some like the feeling
of combinations. As we learn to trust our intuition and the wisdom of our
inner feelings, we discover that we truly know what feels best for our highest
good.
Q. Does my use of Powerforms subtle
energy tools affect my affiliation with my religion, and does it affect my
spiritual beliefs?
A. The religious, spiritual, or mystic impulse exists within us all, although we
each have our own way of experiencing our oneness with the Creative
Intelligence of the universe. Powerforms assist our connection with the divine
by helping us re-pattern energy blockages and become aligned with our higher
truth. Our path to God (or whatever Name we call the Divine), is enhanced by
the use of Powerforms.
A
Sacred Space in which we can know the divine as both an inner and outer
presence is made possible by becoming more aligned. The divine may thus be
experienced within our hearts and minds, and within our everyday surroundings
as well. We might compare energy alignment with a well-tuned instrument. When
we are “well-tuned” we are able to resonate with the “divine music” of
spiritual truth in the way that is appropriate for us. To list just a few
examples of traditional religions:
Christians
can resonate with God and Jesus the Christ; Moslems with Allah and Mohammed
the Messenger; Hindus with Brahma an
