Union with
the Holy Mother and Child
The Divine
Mother labors to give birth to the Messiah in us, and when we invite
the Anointed and Mother Spirit into us and into our lives at the outset
of the Path, we open ourselves to the Mother’s Force, the Father
in the form of the Holy Dove; her Grace descends as the Light from above
and she awakens the Power of the Holy Spirit in us, the Serpent Power
that rests in the Root. Through the Grace of the Living Father in our
Divine Mother, the Messiah is conceived and born in us – the Spiritual
Sun dawns in our hearts and minds, and we are illuminated by the Holy
Spirit.
Through the practice of Union
with the Holy Mother and Child we seek to draw near to the Divine Mother
so that she might give birth to the Spiritual Sun in us – it is
a practice of opening to the Mother’s Force.
The Meditation
Begin with Primordial Mediation,
aware of the Holy Virgin as the very Nature of Consciousness (Ain/No-Thingness)
in yourself; abide in this Holy Awareness.
Then envision the golden
orb of the Spiritual Sun within and behind your heart, and envision
a golden sphere of light surrounding you, as though you are a Child
of Light in the womb of the Holy Mother. Holding this image in mind,
pray:
Hail Miriam, full of Grace,
Yahweh is with you;
Blessed are you among woman,
And blessed is the fruit of your womb, Yeshua.
Holy Miriam, Mother of the
Messiah,
Anoint us now and at the hour of our death, Amen.
(Repeat this at least seven times.)
When your prayer is complete,
envision a ray of light shooting forth from the Spiritual Sun in your
heart and magically appearing as the Holy Mother, with the Holy Child
in her arms.
Meditation
Image:
The Holy Mother is a young
woman, with a beautiful, joyful and gentle countenance; she is robe
in red, trimmed in gold, with a red veil over her head and an aura of
golden light about her; she holds in her arms her Holy Child, who is
robed in gold, with an inner robe of white, with holy symbols in red
embroidered upon it; she supports her Child with her left hand and holds
his hands (which are in a gesture of prayer) in her right hand; the
Holy Child is most beautiful and radiant with glory, and has an aura
of white brilliance with rainbow hues surrounding him. (The image of
the Mother and Child is formed of translucent light, like a rainbow
in the sky, and hovers in the space before you – her feet not
touching the ground.)
*Envisioning the Mother and
Child, if you are inclined, you can pray Mother Miriam’s Song
of Praise – Gospel of St. Luke 1:46-55.
Holding the visualization
of the Holy Mother and Child in your mind, pray to the Holy Mother as
you are lead to pray by your heart, and offer yourself up to her, praying
that she might conceive and give birth to the Light-presence (Anointed)
and Light-power (Holy Spirit) in you. (You may also commune with the
Holy Mother and Child in the silence of your heart, holding the conscious
intention of being open to the Mother’s Force, depending upon
the inspiration of the moment.)
When your cycle of prayer
is complete, take up the chant: Adonai Yeshua Messiah. As you
chant, envision the Holy Child in the arms of the Virgin becoming brighter
and brighter, and streams of light flowing from his body of glory, blessing
you, and see the Holy Mother smiling upon you, her love pouring out
upon you as the Light of the Messiah. The light within and around you
grows brighter and brighter as you receive the light-emanations of blessing
from the Mother’s Child. As you come to the conclusion of the
chant, see the Holy Child become pure white brilliance and see this
light shoot forth, like a shooting star, to form a center of white brilliance
above your head.
Then take up the chant: Ah-Yah-Ha-Vah,
and envision the white brilliance pouring down through the top of your
head into the Spiritual Sun in your heart, transforming the Sun into
white brilliance – all of the light from the center above pours
down into your heart, and you feel yourself filled with the Light-presence
and Light-power, the love and compassion of Messiah.
When you have received the
Light from above, the Holy Child, aware of yourself as the Holy Child,
shift your focus once again to the Virgin Mother, giving praise and
thanks to God for the Divine Grace manifest as the Holy Mother and Child.
Then take up the Mother’s chant: Ishah Ah-Ma Imma Miriam
(the extended chant may include: Imma Miriam Ha-Elohim). As you chant
the Mother’s chant envision her growing brighter and brighter,
and streams of light flowing from her body of glory, blessings you.
At the conclusion of the chant see her image become fluid flowing light,
and envision it pouring back into the Spiritual Sun in your heart. As
the great blessing of the Holy Mother enters your heart see brilliant
rays of rainbow glory stream forth from your heart and from your whole
body – abide in the awareness of your mind, heart and body merged
as one with the Holy Mother and Child.
Abide in Union as long as
you can.
When you go out into the
world, let all that appears be as the Palace of Lights in which the
Divine Mother dwells – as though all is her Body of Glory; hear
all sounds as her Voice, the Living Word of God; and all thoughts and
emotions arising in the mind and heart receive as the spontaneous display
of her Innate Wisdom-Mind, the Wisdom of God.
This is the essential practice
of Union with the Holy Mother and Child.
*The initiate may carry this
practice further, envisioning her or his body dissolving into fluid
flowing light, and the light being gathered into the Body of Truth –
the Clear Light Essence. The seal of this practice is the Primordial
Contemplation of Melchizedek. This conclusion is an advanced practice
which may require added instructions by an Elder or Tau of the lineage
in order to actually be performed.
