Vibrating at an optimum frequency

I attend a wonderful spiritual community called Agape here in Southern California (Los Angeles).  The Rev. Dr. Michael Beckwith (can be seen in the movie “The Secret” for those of you who know of this - he's been on Larry King Live and on Oprah this February talking about “The Secret”)….Well “The Rev” as he's nicknamed often talks of the vibratory beings that we are.  That to meditate and feel oursleves in a high vibration that is one with the universe, and one based in abundance, love, feeling good, possibility, and being in tune, is to be vibrating at a frequency that is so high that the lower frequencies (lack, fear, limitation, and being out of tune) are at too low a frequency to affect us as we are vibrating at a high enough frequency that we are consistently in tune (including AFTER we're done meditating).

My dearest Holden (as in Caulfied from “Catcher in the Rye” or as in the character that Jake Gyllenhall played in the movie the “Good Girl”?….It may seem like a flippant comment to you, but I am Keen on Learning the answer… ;-)

You make a very good point and I have been considering your point-of-view ever since you posted it….

Here is My Re-sponse, co-sponsored by a Prince among Men….

Not everyone is Tuned In to the Best Channels that Are Available to Them.
Some People Think that they have a Limited Selection… So they choose from a Restricted Menu of Options.

Some People Think that They Know WHAT is Best for Others…
…And They're Energetic Assistance in “Re-directing Traffic (as it were)” has a Negative Influence on the People that They MOST Want To Help.

Perhaps,,,,,,,We can Find Ways and Means
2 Change People's Paradigms…

JUST a thought/Thought.

Re: Vibrating at an optimum frequency

You asked how I got my name, so I cut and pasted the explanation that I have written in a blog from my myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/holdenhayes)…

Ok, since I get asked multiple times in a week (sometimes in a day) about how I got my name, I'm going to give the story here and now, and simply refer any myspacers to this blog who ask me.  I often get asked, “So, were you named after Holden Caulfield of Catcher and the Rye?” OR something similiar to this.  The answer is:  No, I was not named after Holden Caulfield of Catcher and the Rye…Actually, I think that's where my mother first heard of the name, but how I got the name is entirely different…

Months before I was born (sitll in Mom's tummy) my parents were at the Indiana Dunes beach writing possible names for me in the sand and the water/tide would come and wash away each name that they wrote.  Eventually, they wrote Holden and it didn't wash away - the writing stayed.  So, later that day, they were at home and looking at a map of the Indiana Dunes and pinpointed where they were at earlier; However, low and behold, they noticed that on the map directly behind where they had been was an area named “Mount Holden” (a small summitt or large hill in the dunes)…  So, as one would expect, they were rather amazed, and figured Holden must be the right name and THAT'S how I got my name.

Re: Vibrating at an optimum frequency

My first thought on reading your name was that it was from William Holden, the great film actor.
Rent “Picnic”, if you're not familiar with him! ( From the brilliant William Inge play)

A much cooler Holden to hail from, people-wise, but I adore your names-in-the-sand story even better!

Hi, Nishtha~
I stand accused and I now understand what you were so painstakingly and patiently attempting to enlighten me to months ago.
Lots of cosmic instruction later, I really get it, I think!
I like the simplicity of the way the vibes are mentioned here and this resonates easily with my understanding of what you were telling me.
Also, sweetness does work better than pointing out defects in others, duh!
Proving a case only appeals on one level and is likely to cause a bad reaction.
Charm and sympathy work wonders and create an inviting example.
And “do as I say to do and not as I do”, is not an ideal way to be, and even “do as I do”, even if it's completely compassionate food-wise, is less than loving communication-wise.
Being peaceful with all beings is the point and getting it across must be in a peaceful, loving, fashion to be accepted.
Pointing fingers, making arguments, and even winning wars is not part of healing or being peaceful.
Loving is.
is this getting close, Nishtha?

Thanks for your enlightenment!

Re: Vibrating at an optimum frequency

Dearest Ocean, I am months late in responding to your post and I apologize for my tardiness. However, I feel as if the cosmos has led me back to Gaia at such an opportune moment and that makes me believe that all is as it was meant to be.

Your voice here is so gentle and calm and it brings a smile to my face and to my heart. I wonder what is going on in your life now, vibrationally, and if you care to share what your journey has been. I am here, with open eyes and ears and openness in my heart…
