The word “Sankalpa” is Sanskrit and is defined in English as “affirmation” or “declaration”. This is a statement of a truth that we have firmly embraced as we align with SOURCE that has invested us with the free will to choose our desires and thus to manifest them as experiences.

Of course, there are still particular actions that we must take as we affirm or declare our truth, and it must be in alignment with the goodness of SOURCE LIGHT.

Here is a simple metaphor to further explain this: Suppose an individual declares that he or she wants to be a Physician. Suppose that such a person says to the registrar at a university the following: “I declare that I am a Physician, so give me my medical degree now”. The Registrar will stare at the person thinking that he or she is not sane, and this individual certainly cannot merely open an office and expect to diagnose and perform certain procedures.

The desire to be such a professional is wonderful, but such an individual would still have to be found able to do college work and would have to successfully pass various courses, take exams, do an internship, and be approved to receive a medical degree by the university board that grants them.

In similar fashion, a “Sankalpa” must be followed by prayer for being kept worthy of the “Sankalpa’s” sacred and mystical activations, and also partaking of healthy foods, drinking plenty of water, studying elevated knowledge, and performing in righteousness is necessary.

A “Sankalpa”, thus, begins the re-framing of our lifestyle so that we are consciously open to receive the guidance of the HIGHER SELF — the DIVINE within us.

When a “Sankalpa” is rich with vibrations that come from its words, we begin to think more clearly, feel more accurately, speak in love and compassion, and act in ways that are beneficial for ourselves and for those with whom we share the planet.

The following has been given in parts in several other articles. It is now time that we speak it completely. Each day, along with the other prayers and meditations that you are engaged in, recite the following “Sankalpa” aloud three times in the morning, in the afternoon, and in the evening, first envisioning yourself in LIGHT:

” I AM CONTINUALLY RECEIVING SOURCE LIGHT, AND EVERYTHING IS ALWAYS IN DIVINE ORDER. I AM A LIGHT OF THE GREATER LIGHT. I AM CONTINUALLY REGENERATING, REVITALIZING, AND RENEWING SPIRITUALLY, PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, MENTALLY, TRANSCENDENTALLY, AND COSMICALLY. SACRED PRAISES. SACRED PRAISES. SACRED PRAISES”.

The word “Transcendentally” refers to our ability to rise above any chaos and confusion that is occurring in the world. It is not that we ignore it, but we choose to have a higher understanding of how mankind often brings dire situations upon itself, and then the cosmos answers back with cleansings and clearings.

The word “Cosmically” refers to our being kept in the LIGHT of the harmony of the cosmic energetics and not subject to challenges and problems and that we are able to experience what many may call “miracles” on a daily basis.

It takes time for a “Sankalpa” to anchor to our cellular records and settle into our beings. Ancient civilizations taught that we are encoded for a type of existence that is eternally LIGHT-filled and that when people believe only in a planetary life of challenges that become even more intense as we become older, then of physical depletion, then of mental cognitive decline, and more problems, then this is always what will manifest generation after generation — era after era.

Indeed, this is how the “Yugas” (“Ages”) have manifested in many ways. With the power of choice, mankind has chosen to think and behave in ways that are depleting to the planet and to themselves.

As has been explained many times, there are ups and downs in humanity’s experiences throughout the ages according to levels of collective consciousness. Sometimes there are high percentages of human righteousness — and thus of HIGHER KNOWLEDGE — and sometimes there are low levels of it.

In the era of “KALI YUGA” — which has just ended as of March of this year — only 1/4 of all humanity demonstrated righteousness, while 3/4 were filled with hatred, greed, warring tendencies, vile scientific experimentations, and other viciousness.

Yet, “KALI YUGA” is still on the world table as crumbs that have yet to be cleared-off while the new era of “DWAPARA YUGA” has come but is in its infancy. Eventually, as it grows, 1/2 of the world population will elevate in righteousness.

Yugas” last, however, for a very long while. They do not come and go like the seasons. Some ancient texts speak of them lasting for hundreds of thousands of years.

To repeat the “Yugas”, they are KALI YUGA (only 1/4 righteous), DWAPARA YUGA (1/2 righteous), TRETA YUGA (3/4 righteous), and SATTVA YUGA (Paradise on Earth — all have achieved righteousness).

However, it is also taught that humanity can shorten the bad eras, and thus, birth the better eras more quickly according to collective consciousness levels as the reality that everything and everyone has the ability to call forth the LIGHT is believed.

It may be difficult for some modern-day persons to believe that just by reciting an affirmation we can call forth LIGHT. Our ancestors of the better eras would not be skeptical. They knew and still know that a sincere “Sankalpa” is rich with treasures for they are yet with us—in a different dimension — but the righteous are alive.

Consider the following verse from the EMERALD TABLET: “The Soul that enters the body of a person is immortal, but if it tastes evil throughout its life, it shall not know immortality”.

Consider this verse from the HOLY QU’RAN when the leaving of the physical vessel by a loved one occurs: “They are alive, if ye but knew”.

Here is another comforting verse from the BHAGAVAD GITA: “Never grieve for anyone righteous, for their Spirit, their life force is eternal”. This same text states: “A healthy nervous system equals a profounder life force, and this eventuates into unlimited power which then becomes the realization of ETERNAL BEING while yet in the material body”. Therefore, the realization of ETERNAL BEING constitutes steady regeneration, for there is no destruction of the DIVINE ABSOLUTE.

We are, therefore, wealthy with potential power, and this wealth is awaiting discovery in the “upper room” — the HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS. The “key” to the door of the “upper room” is our FAITH in our pronouncement that we are ready to enter.

Once we turn the key and the door opens, we must walk into the LIGHT, pray into “IT” and listen to “ITS” messages. As we do so, we can be renewed in all ways. The righteous (and those who are truly trying to be — for GOD is merciful) are all verses in a never-ending HOLY SOURCE BOOK, and the experiences of our lives are its chapters.
