Ilchi Lee Meditation Techniques

Regardless of variations in time, geography, and culture, all civilizations have referred to the Earth as the ‘Mother Earth.’ Korean tradition refers to the Earth as ‘Mago’ by combining the roots of two terms. ‘Ma, Mater, Umma, Mom,’ the almost universal sound for Mother, is combined with ‘Go’, which signifies ancient or old in traditional Asian writing, to form the word ‘Mago’. Directly translated, ‘Mago’ thus means ‘Ancient Mother.’ This is not to be confused with an image of an old hag, or witch, a distinctly European invention dating back to Middle Ages. Mago is closer to the Hellenic-Roman concept of earth goddess, Gaiea.

Since the human soul is intimately connected to the Earth’s soul, we can truly feel the Earth in our hearts when we are able to commune with her on a spiritual plane. Only then will we be able to see the Earth with the Earth’s awareness, leading to a human culture of harmony and forgiveness. Indigenous Native Americans of Sedona also believed that the Earth had a soul, prophesying that the Earth will only be healed and humans only become complete when we can commune with her soul and seek to protect her body.

Mago is a concept far different, and far older, than the concept of god. Gods are invisible, but Mago is both visible and tangible. We can see, hear, and touch the Mother Earth, the ever-present root of all life on our planet. Until now, humanity has had an on-going and one-sided love affair with various gods, trusting in them to secure and bless our individual nations, peoples, religions, and families, praying endlessly to the divine deaf ear and taking advantage of non-existent pronouncements to justify whatever they wanted. Who could accuse them of being wrong? The gods were never held responsible, nor their messengers accountable. However, since she has both a body and a soul, the Earth can tell us immediately, in a palpable and tangible way, what is and what is not pleas ing to her. We cannot conveniently wish her existence away, as we have done with countless gods. Yet, it almost seems as if we are trying in earnest to destroy her and to destroy ourselves in the process. We seem to be attempting to uproot our own existence.

If any love has the forgiveness and patience to guide a wayward child, no, a juvenile delinquent, like humanity, it has to be the love of a Mother. If her love is acknowledged and accepted in its benevolent omnipresence and omniscience, then what other possible decision could we make except to respond in kind? In order for us to effect a shift in human consciousness to a level on which we can have a ‘heart-to-heart’ conversation with the Earth, and feel her love, we must reopen a channel of communication that we have always had, but have not always been aware of.

…when I think of the Earth, the picture that first comes to my mind is one taken by a satellite from outer space, a blue-green ball tantalizingly covered with wisps of white clouds. To communicate with the Earth’s heart, but not only know the Earth on a physical level, but also know her on a spiritual one. It is far more important to be able to feel the wholeness of the Earth than to know her geological history or the correct correlation of her limestone layers.

Have you ever said “Good Morning!” to a stand of particularly tall grass or a wild flower that opened its petals especially early one morning? Anyone who is a gardener has had experiences of talking with the plants under his or her care. When you have an experience of feeling the ‘heart’ of a plant, you no longer regard the plant as mere decoration, but as an entity of life. In point of fact, you have not actually spoken to the plant in the usual sense, but you have indeed felt and sensed the energy and soul of the life expressed through the shape and form of the plant. Likewise, in order to communicate with the earth, we must come to know Earth as a living entity, with a material body, life energy, and an eternal soul, as all forms of life.

In order to achieve genuine peace by placing the Earth at the fulcrum of living values, we need not only understand the importance of the Earth, but also be able to communicate with her in a personal, intimate, and profound way. Even if we all intellectually understand that the Earth is the key to peace, it is for naught if this knowledge is not made tangible and applicable.

In order for information to enter the brain and then be expressed as action, that information must be processed and delivered to the furthest nerve endings and muscles. Similarly, establishment of the Earth as the center of our values must go beyond the intellectual plane and be ingrained into every cell of our bodies in order to be realized.

For this to happen, our hearts must be able to communicate with the heart of the Earth. Although many people realize the importance of the Earth, they only think of the Earth as a large material object, because they don’t know how to connect with her heart, thus leaving their hearts barren and lifeless. The moment that you can feel the heart of the Earth and consciously accept it as such, is a moment of enlightenment, for you will have allowed your awareness to meld with that of the Earth and see and feel her as she herself does.

…let us travel outward into the cosmos, until we are looking down at the Earth. Free your awareness from the time and space continuum and see the Earth in a state of absolute freedom. See the blue green sphere, magically suspended in inky, all-encompassing blackness, soft and bright in her soothing luminosity.

Do you see the assorted and indescribable colors weaving in and out of this earthly tapestry? Can you see the different colored petals of flowers as they sway in the wind, weaving and twirling, mixing with the wild grasses to go forth as a living breeze, only to fall onto the dark soil as an invisible mist of green life? Do you see the dynamic beauty of animals as they prowl, swallowed by the protective green gauze of the forests or the harsh yellow tint of the desert? Do you see any differences in human beings in terms of their skin color, body types, or any other criteria that you can think of?

Of course you do, for life is an expression of infinite creativity. No living thing is identical to any other living thing, even among the same species. And do you realize that this is a blessing, the greatest ever, and that ‘sameness’ is unnatural and an affront to life? Life is not an imitation, but an unending process of original creation. Can you now feel an overwhelming burst of inspiration and gratitude for this infinite variety? For the love of the Creator, as life is bursting in full bloom in its blinding and brash beauty?
