NEW ATTITUDE
As we make our transition into a new year,
we have decided to make changes to propel our Sangha forward. Going into to 2016, formerly known as the
Fellowship of Conscious Beings, we have adopted a
new definition to the place we hold close to heart. We
are now called The Self Empowerment Center.
With the projection to move into a new
building we now more than ever need the physical,
spiritual, and financial support of our members. Your
contribution in all ways is vital for the direction of the
Center. Make it a point to pass on the information you
receive here to those who are in the receiving mode to
accept these teachings.

We have dojo classes every Thursday night

starting at 6:30pm at the Fellowship. Classes are
structured totally for the mature conscious being.
Our classes include physical arts, discipline, and
meditation. There is testing given to all students
periodically All classes are closely monitored, this
includes suggested diet and exercise techniques
to enhance and promote physical and spiritual
growth. Please see The Acharyah

06

In order to create clarity, we must be free of masks. We must see

things as they are, not what we fear they will become. We must see
things as they are yet realize we have power to change them.
When the sky is clear we can see the Sun. When the sky is polluted
the Sun can not be seen. Yet in both cases the Sun never ceases to
shine, so it is with the truth of ourselves.
Who we are will always shine forth. If we do not like what we see,
creating deception is not the answer. We must become the change
we want to see,

If you have not attended New Members Orientation, please see brother
Yahya.

WE ARE GROWING!!

COSMIC CORNER
EVERY CALENDAR NEEDS TO HAVE FULL MOON DATES
MARKED IN! THIS WILL HELP YOU TO PLAN THE DATES
FOR YOUR RITUALS AND ESBATS(HEALING MAGIC).

NEW MOON
INTENTIONS

The new moon is about starting with an
empty clean slate, it is the conception of an idea to
become birthed into life with the coming full moon.
I do this just like thousands of others have for literally
hundreds of thousands of years to move, ebb and flow
with the energy that is within all of the universe including us.
The new moon is also a time of seeding ideas and intentions. Theses seeded ideas will then sprout with
the coming full moon just as the seed lye waiting in
darkness to break forth into the light to bring fruit, so
should you allow the gestation and creation of such
idea to bring about physical results.

I always begin by setting aside some time most of the time

it is by myself at night but you can also do this in a group.
Keep in mind that our words and thoughts are vibrations so
any intentions stated or written down carry power, so take
care to really manifest exactly what you would like by feeling that vibration.

The saying Be careful what you wish for, you just might
get it. rings true here. The moon has her phases and so
do we, that is why it is always good to think it through
to become clear about what you want but on a lighter
note you always have next months to release and set new
intentions should these ones not ring true the way you
would like.

08

leanse your sacred area with an

opening prayer, a sage smudging, and/or by burning some incense.
Light one or more candles, maybe
create a crystal grid and/or alter with
objects you find sacred or embody
physically the goals you would like to
achieve.
Center your being and calm yourself in whatever way is appropriate
for you. Take some deep cleansing
breaths, turn on your meditation music to listen to, and/or leisurely sip on a
cup of relaxing herbal tea.
Open your notebook, and date the
first page. Begin writing down your
desires. Your list may consist of a
single item or you may have several
pages listing multiple items. Try not to
limit yourself. If having many things in
your life helps to fulfill you then dont
deny yourself wanting these things.

09

Now close your eyes and try to imagine what it would feel like to attain
your desires and goals. Make sure to
not come from the place of feeling
the wanting part but really feel as if
you have already achieved those moments and goals, picture what that
feels like.

to undertake, enjoy yourself! You will

soon be amazed how these things begin to find their way into your life once
you start this process. Through out the
rest of the month feel free to do the
following as extra to help you seeded
thoughts grow to fruition!

In this notebook you can also use it as

a manifestation scrapbook where you
can paste in pictures or catalog clip
pings of items that you are wanting to
manifest. Creating manifesting scrapbooks or vision boards is a fun project

For the ritual to work, you must feel that you have received your manifestation.
Visiualize the specific circumstances that will unfold when your intentions bear
fruit!

HIMALAYANSALTLAMP
HIMALAYIAN SALT CONTAINS 84 ELEMENTS THAT INCLUDE MIINERALS, TRACE
MINERALS AND MICROMINERALS

Before you sit down to read this, take a few moments
to take a look around your surroundings and identify all the
electrical devices that surround you. Maybe you can hear the
constant buzzing of your computer, the glow of a television
dances on your face, or your air conditioner unit just kicked
on. Maybe all three are happening at once! As you find yourself
completely enveloped in a fabric of warm, glowing technology,
remind yourself of the peace and calm that can be achieved
when you are outside in the fresh air, sans electrical outlets and
buzzing devices.

It can be a terrifying prospect for some, but its important for us all to take a break from the electrical circuit
which seems to connect our modern world. You dont
have to enforce a no-technology policy in your home or
office; it could be as easy as adding one little thing to
your environment: the Himalayan Salt Lamp.
A salt lamp is a piece of Himalayan salt that has been
hollowed out to house and embrace the heat emitted
from a small light bulb.

10

Salt lamps come in many different sizes and you want to

purchase one that is made
from pure Himalayan salt.
To understand the idea behind
the benefits of a Himalayan
salt lamp, you need to understand the science behind the
ionization of our airborne environment. Positive and negative ions are in our air and the
balance of ions in your living space can affect the air quality.
Positive ions are those which have lost an electron and gained
positive charge. They are often caused by our electronic devices and are commonly said to promote stressful and anxious feelings and to pose many health problems. To balance
these positive ions requires negative ions. The more negative
ions that exist in your air, the more refreshing, peaceful, and
invigorating your space will be. Many claim that being in an
environment full of negatively charged ions leads to health
benefits and better overall well- being. Situations where negative ions are commonly found are after a thunderstorm and
the areas around a lively waterfall.
Where does a Himalayan salt lamp come into play? Good
question. While there are other methods of removing positively charged ions like grounding, Himalayan salt lamps
provide a fairly affordable, very pleasant, and even chic way
to solve this problem and balance out your environment. A
hygroscopic process occurs when a Himalayan salt lamp is
used in your home.

The heat source within the lamp drives this process

which results in the attraction of moisture, humidity,
and airborne water particles in the air. Evaporation
produces negative ions, and the attraction of these
water molecules paired up with this resulting evaporation makes for a very negative-ioninducing effect.
It may not seem like such a bad thing to have the
buzzing of electrics in your home and surrounding
your workspace, however a closer look may make you
think twice about this dilemma. Mold, bacteria, and
allergens that exist in the air are all positively charged
and can cause problems with concentration or much
worse.
Negative ions negate these detrimental effects and
allow an increase of oxygen to the brain. Sounds
good right? An increase in oxygen will help you concentrate and provide you with more mental energy

Himalayian Rock Salt absorbs and neutralizes all negative energy, toxins, allergens and irritants in your environment. It is a must have energy tool for purifying,
detoxing, and energetically cleansing your space. You
can also add a couple to your bath for aura cleansing
and ridding your body of negative energy.

SOLFEGGIO
FREQUENCIES
BY DAVID HUSLE

t the turn of the century the awareness of DNA entered the collective consciousness of the world. We have incarnated into this human experience as
divine beings with a blueprint, a set of instructions. We know that a very small percentage (3%) of those instructions make up our physiology.
Carl Sagan writes that most of our genetic information (about 97%) is unused DNA.
He refers to this as genetic gibberish. Is it possible that most of who we are still lies
dormant as our human potential?
In the old paradigm of religion, potential remained a mystery to the human mind,
therefore we coined a mystical term called SPIRIT. Spirit was something that was
detached from who we were, something we didnt have and could only be gained
through the systems of most religions.
The old paradigm and its premise stated that we began as biology in the womb
of our mothers. Telliard deChardin tells us that we are not a human being trying
to attain a spiritual experience, but, rather, we are spiritual beings having a human
experience. This shift in perception causes a tremendous difference in the way we
perceive ourselves in this third/fourth time-space continuum.
Being a student of A Course In Miracles in the late 80s, I was faced with a dichotomy
in the idea that we are not a body. I never understood this statement fully until I
began to study Quantum Physics which tells us that everything is energy and matter is not as solid as we perceive it to be. I believe what is being stated is that at
the deepest level we are not separate, as a body, as a spirit, as a soul we are just
energy-beings. This is the level of consciousness being opened to us from which a
new paradigm is emerging for the purpose of healing all separation. The popular
term, The Divine, is in me- makes me separate from the Divine. May I suggest a
shift in the saying to: The Divine, AS me to remove the separation.
As we move from genetics and concepts like Soul, Soul Mates and Soul work, we
move beyond physical diagnosis, into a new field of quantum physics. In this new
field, where consciousness is seen as a unified field where everything is everything
else, (T.O.E. Theory - The Theory of Everything) there are no boundaries. There is no
this or that; no you or me. It is a pure field of awareness consciousness. I solved
the dichotomy about we are not our body by changing my perception of genetics
to energetics - realizing that we are not meant to ignore our physiology, but recognize the body as energy, vibrating at a very dense frequency.

12

Everything is relationship. Everything is consciousness.

When you are observing an object, on some level the
object is observing you. Just because something doesnt
have a human consciousness, as I do, that doesnt mean it
doesnt have its own consciousness. Apparently, observing
something changes it on some level that the observer,
and the observed are one.

I found this ancient scale to be part of a 6-tone scale sequence of electro-magnetic frequencies called the Original Solfeggio Scale through
the book The Healing Codes of Biological Apocalypse by Dr. Leonard
Horowitz. These particular frequencies were rediscovered by Dr. Joseph
Puleo, who received them in a wonderful experience that some would
suggest was mystical. These frequencies are not something new, but they
are something very old.
As we look at the six original Solfeggio frequencies, using the Pythagorean method, we find the base or root vibrational numbers are 3,6, & 9.
Nikola Tesla tells us, and I quote: If you only knew the magnificence of the
3, 6 and 9, then you would have a key to the universe.
John Keely, an expert in electromagnetic technologies, wrote that the
vibrations of thirds, sixths, and ninths, were extraordinarily powerful. In
fact, he proved the vibratory antagonistic thirds was thousands of times
more forceful in separating hydrogen from oxygen in water than heat.
In his Formula of Aqueous Disintegration he wrote that, molecular
dissociation or disintegration of both simple and compound elements,
whether gaseous or solid, a stream of vibratory antagonistic thirds, sixths,
or ninths, on their chord mass will compel progressive subdivisions. In the
disintegration of water the instrument is set on thirds, sixths, and ninths,
to get the best effects.
In the book of Genesis it states that there are six days of creation. Yet many
talk about the creation week or seven days, and the Christian Bible views
the number seven as the number of completeness. Why Seven? It is due to
the influence of the Near Eastern culture at the time in which Jesus lived,
when it was believed that there were only seven planets. When wrestling
with adding a 7th number, I was mystically drawn to an article in Discover
Magazine. In his newest book, Just Six Numbers, Rees argues that six numbers underlie the fundamental physical properties of the universe, and
that each is the precise value needed to permit life to flourish.

13

In laying out this premise, he joins a long, intellectually daring line of cosmologists and astrophysicists
(not to mention philosophers, theologians, and logicians) stretching all the way back to Galileo, who
presume to ask: Why are we here? As Rees puts
it, These six numbers constitute a recipe for the
universe. He adds that if any one of the numbers
were different even to the tiniest degree, there
would be no stars, no complex elements, no life.
(From Discovery Magazine). As some authors have
speculated, could these tones have played a role in
the miraculous shattering of Jerichos great wall in
six days before falling on the seventh day? Some
scientists are now stating that if we have been created, we most likely would have been sung into
existence. Is it possible that the six days of creation
mentioned in Genesis represent six fundamental
frequencies that underlie the universe? Religious
scholars believe both events occurred as a result of
sounds being spoken or played. Other scientists,
including the geniuses Nikola Tesla, Raymond Rife,
as well as Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, and Chladni,
all must have known about, and used the concept
of, the inherent power of threes, sixes, andnines.
So we are dealing with three powerful numbers:
3-6-9. Everyone of the six Solfeggio Tuning Forks
all add up, individually to the Pythagorean scheme
of 3-6-9. In fact, because there are two sets of 3-69 (anagrams) in the solfeggio, they are even more
powerful as these combinations serve as portals
to other dimensions!

SPIRITUALITY
THE SACRED SPIRAL

The spiral represents the universal pattern of
growth and evolution. The spiral represents eternity
and continuity. The spiral in nature appears frequently.
It is a symbol that represents innocence, rebirth, and
the eternal. The sacred spiral is also an energetic symbol, it represents energy. In fact if you look at pure
energy under a microscope you will see that energy
forms spiral patterns.
The spiral path is about you going inward, toward
your source of power. It is a metaphor for life and our
personal journey to consciousness awareness. It is all
about exploring our ability to create through our
choices of love, trust, and alignment. Choosing to
know ourselves as Oneness vs. living as little selves in
the illusion of separateness, in fear, resistance and victimization. We always have the choice and in each moment we have the opportunity to choose again.
Our experience of the world and the life we create depends on the perspective we are choosing. That stands
repeating: our experience depends on our perspective.

Met with resistance these experiences will

be painful and difficult. They will
repeat themselves over and over again
until we choose to embrace them and
evolve.
When we see life as an uphill battle, these
challenging times seem like were falling
back into old patterns or having to deal
with the same old stuff again. From the
perspective of the Sacred Spiral we are
spiraling upward toward greater clarity
of
consciousness at the same time as we
move through cycles
