“A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest… a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.” Albert Einstein

I have been participating in the Oneness Blessing for a few months now. I have enjoyed it so very much and gained so much benefit from it that I’ve decided to begin airing Oneness Blessing teleconference calls from Rev. Dr. Michael Milner on My Meditation Garden. This way I can share with all our readers what the Oneness Blessing is all about.

The Oneness Blessing is commonly referred to as Deeksha or Oneness Deeksha. It is basically a transfer of spiritual energy to the neocortex of the brain. This transfer of spiritual energy or blessing initiates a neurobiological change in the brain that when complete enables the senses to be free from the constant interference of the mind. As a result, you feel an unclouding and clearing of the mind as it becomes less and less preoccupied with stresses and negative emotions. You feel clarity of perception with frequent and spontaneous feelings of joy, inner calmness and a connection to the Oneness in everything.

The Oneness Blessing does not belong to any religion, or any particular belief or spiritual path. It is given each day to people all over the world, of all races, religions, nationalities, and spiritual and non-spiritual beliefs.

I hope you enjoy this audio session and I look forward to hearing from you about your perceptions and experiences with it. I will continue to post oneness blessing sessions up on the site as well.

“The more we simply accept ourselves exactly as we are,

experiencing the full content of each moment without conflict or resistance & join together around the world with others whose hearts are flowering, the more the Light of Infinite Love will flood the Earth!” - Michael Milner

In this podcast, I discuss religion and spirituality with Reverend Dr. Michael Milner. Michael is an ordained Taoist Priest and a Catholic Priest. He has lived in both the East and the West and has learned and experienced the spiritual and religious philosophies of both worlds.

He is a genuine spiritual master. Aside from conducting spirituality workshops, meditation classes, and doing energy healing, he also gives diksha

This is an absolutely fascinating podcast where we delve in to religion, its role in our lives and its relationship with spirituality. We also discuss meditation, energy healing, and the mystical side of Christianity.He goes into much detail about it and all the similarities between Western and Eastern religions and faiths.

Michael is now one of the most prominent Oneness Blessing givers in Florida, a Taoist meditation teacher, and an energy healer. Listen to the podcast to find out more about his journey through the East and the West and how he has come to terms with the teachings of both religious faiths and made sense of them both.

This is a really enlightening and educational podcast episode that I hope will inspire many and answer a lot of your unasked questions!

It was an absolute delight to have Michael on our show and have him partake in our Spiritual Masters Series of the Meditation Garden Podcast!

In this podcast, Panache Desai declares the importance and role of the United States in this shift in consciousness and why he was called to this country to do his work.  He also goes into detail about his childhood and how he found out that he had been chosen from generations ago to do the spiritual work he is currently doing.

A delightful and sometimes even funny interview with a very unique and special individual. I hope you enjoy it and look forward to receiving feedback on your thoughts about it! Remember to sign up for the RSS feed to keep in tune with our regular podcasts and upcoming guests!

Panache Desai comes from a lineage of Indian saints and was born in London. Though he was told about his ability and job to spread spiritual enlightenment in the world, he did not come to understand what that meant until his early 20’s.

At the tender age of 23, he had a spiritual awakening which has led him to traveling the United States, State by State, sharing his gift with others and creating an energetic and spiritual awakening in our country. He uses his gifts to enable people to remember that their essence is that of love and abundance and to create a shift in their consciousness.

According to Panache, “By the end of 2009, from each anchor point, a stream of golden energy will radiate across towns, cities and states until all of America is encompassed in a dome of light, protection, and Divine love. This gift transcends all religious beliefs, ideologies, backgrounds, and faiths.” Panache quoted in The Eternal Search for “Who Am I?” by Susan Scharfman.

Panache is a mirror to those he encounters. He shows people their beauty and their flaws and in that way serves as an incredibly powerful tool to humanity’s awakening, self-acceptance, and acceptance of others.

This energy is here to help mankind once again establish a deeper relationship with their true selves. It transcends all boundaries of race, religion and creed and is here for the upliftment of all. – Panache

In this episode, I share the stage with Athena Murphy. It is an incredibly interesting episode where we learn how Athena was able to meditate at home for over a month straight (literally!) and how that meditation actually resulted in shifting of bones in her head… all this from the comfort of her own home, with no meditation teacher or group and no medicine.  After being diagnosed with a physical condition, meditation was the only thing that helped her in healing herself.

This is truly an awe-inspiring story about how a woman’s dedication to meditation and never-ending commitment (to the point where she left her job to be able to do this) paid off in so many ways than she ever expected. I hope you enjoy this podcast and as always I look forward to getting feedback from you!
