Maria Duval - The ʻTree of the Fruits of Lightʼ

Another technique to hone your creative visualisation from Maria Duval.

1. Find a quiet, well-ventilated place where you wonʼt be disturbed, with suitable lighting that is not too bright. You might want to burn some incense or light a candle. Slip into some loose clothing, ideally in natural fabrics (linen, cotton, wool). Settle yourself down comfortably, back nice and straight, legs and arms uncrossed (this promotes energetic circulation). Use a visual aid (card or material) to help you identify more clearly with the colour youʼre going to be working with – in this case, lemon yellow.

2. Close your eyes and start to relax, to release your tension… free yourself of all cares, all stress. To do this, use your conscious breathing. As you breathe in, slowly and deeply, you are accessing the subtler energies contained in the air… then hold your breath as this air invigorates and purifies all the cells in your body. Now, as you breathe out, expel all your tension onto the purifying flame of the candle… all your fears, your anxieties and all the negativity that is holding you back.

3. Now visualise-imagine a sphere of white light above your head… see it enter you through the crown of your head, purify you and re-energise your whole body… it illuminates your face, then the nape of your neck, your back, your chest, purifying every one of your organs, relaxing your arms, descending down to your legs, then back up your spine, instantly eliminating all tension. Continue breathing slowly and deeply… allow this light-energy to regenerate, harmonize, purify and illuminate your aura. You are now in a receptive state.

4. Visualise the colour lemon-yellow… like a bright ray, the colour lemon penetrates you.. you are sitting down, at the foot of a tree with fruits of light, a lemon tree. You lift your head… its fruits shine above you among the leaves… a cool, aromatic breeze caresses you in the light… the air around the lemons is luminous. Let this lemon colour enter you through the pores of your skin and lift you up, purify you… the energy of the lemon colour runs through you like a breath of freshness… everywhere it passes, it fills you, spilling out from your body into your aura. Your aura fills with joy, with cheer and with light.

5. Take some time to assimilate this light properly… the lemon colour gives you mastery over your self, making you more communicative, inspired and optimistic and promotes the expansion of your consciousness… you have absorbed all the virtues and powers associated with this colour. Then thank the Inner Source that has given you this experience. When you are ready, gradually regain awareness of your body, open your eyes… you feel full of energy, purified and in harmony with life.

Contine to feel blessed :)

The Candle Exercise

Psychic Maria Duval says that the candle exercise is excellent for achieving the level of concentration conducive to good visualisation. Settle yourself down comfortably and steady your breathing so it is calm and relaxed. Close your eyes and, behind the ʻscreenʼ of your closed eyelids, at a point located between the eyebrows, just above the bridge of your nose (third eye), visualise a candle, with strength and determination.

Create a mental image of a candle, first the base in white or coloured wax, the wick, then the blue, gas-like flame and finally the yellow-orange flame, which flickers gently, as if in a light breeze. Keep the image of the object firmly in your mind, without losing your concentration…donʼt allow other thoughts to invade your mind… Once you can manage to maintain a clear image for several minutes, without losing yourself in parasitic thoughts that dissolve the image, you can consider the exercise complete. You have to be able to ʻseeʼ the candle, in as much detail as possible, with your eyes closed.

Maria Duval confirms that this exercise will teach you to create thought-forms and to develop your ʻpsychic visionʼ.

If necessary, you can go through a preliminary stage before you do the exercise. This involves lighting a candle and focusing all your attention on it (at a distance of around 40 centimetres from your face), keeping your eyes open, without blinking. Try to memorise every last detail faithfully. Then close your eyes (before they start watering!): youʼll notice how the image of the candle remains fixed for a moment on the retina of your eye, before gradually dissolving. Before the image totally disappears, recreate the thought-form of that candle using a mental image… In other words, from that point onwards, focus your concentration on the internalized image of the candle within you and visualise it. Imagine a beautiful halo of golden light completely surrounding this candle. Hold this perception for as long as possible.

Persevere with your training: after several attempts, youʼll find youʼre able to hold clearer, more detailed images, for longer and longer periods.

Invigorate the Aura through Creative Visualisation

Through the power of Creative Visualisation, you can purify and invigorate your Aura. This technique to self improve your conscious mind is an excellent method for making colours act ʻinternallyʼ.

The visualisation process at the same time mobilizes the energy of the imagination and the energy of thought, channelling this energy to harmonise the etheric, astral and mental auras within the auric egg.

Visualisation - which concerns mental images in the form of thought – is an invisible, yet highly powerful source of energy. With it we can open a clean, clear connection between the self and the subconscious, in a universal language: the language of images.

Visualising draws on imagination and inventiveness. It is a happy combination of self=suggestion and image: it is seeing in thought, seeing with the eyes of the mind. You already have everything you need to practice visualisation within you. You need no external assistance, just a little time. Visualising involves allowing an internal image to rise up within you, using your mental energy.

This requires some active participation on your part…but it really is worth the effort! Remember that the chakras and subtle bodies react swiftly to the internal images and to the visualisation of the colours.

The exercises youʼll need to do are simple, effective and will allow you to benefit from the full strength of visualisation.

At the start of your apprenticeship, to encourage the infl ux of mental images, promote intuition and increase your capacity for concentration, do this short exercise as a sort of ʻwarm-upʼ: place the fi ngers of your right hand on the top of your head (crown chakra) and the fi ngers of your left hand in the middle of your forehead (3rd eye).

Keep your fingers in this position until you feel a ʻpulseʼ, a tingling or a warming feeling in these two points.

Visualisation for Success

Firstly, Maria Duval concurs that if you passionately want to get out of a bad financial phase, have some room to breath, make the most of life, have more money to enjoy and spend on those close to you, set in motion your travel and study projects, buy a new car or live in a bigger house, taste the happiness of a prosperous life, spread the benefits around you, all you need to do is project onto your screen - the screen of your closed eyelids - a mental image of the current situation, then induce in your imagination the positive changes that you want to happen first in your life.

Visualise on your mental screen, what you would like to happen. At the time when you imagine it, you should feel as if you have already obtained it.

Maria Duval wants me to carry on working on your visualisation exercise for 6 consecutive days. Repetition is essential. In fact, the subconscious mind is similar to a young unruly child who needs to be told to do things several times before he actually does it.

Replay the film in your mind, several times a day, preferably in the morning and in the evening before you go to bed. Never interrupt your visualisation on the basis of rational and so called reasonable objections. Work with determination on the realisation of one objective only at a time. By remaining focused on this same objective, you will be more efficient.

Lastly, Maria Duval reminds, remember that everything the mind conceives, it can obtain.

Maria Duval - Creative Visualisation Exercise 3

It's a few days since the last post and I hope things are going well in your life.

Let me continue with Maria Duval's Creative Visualisation Exercise. This is the last if the 3 posts about this practical topic.

First, select a shape like a matchbox, book, vase or etc. Settle yourself in a relaxed position and then focus your attention on the object. Observe intently its colour, contour and shape. Now close your eyes and try to see the object in your mind as clearly as possible.

At first, you may see that the object is blurred or fleeting. Try to improve this image as much as possible. Open your eyes and look at the object again. This time, look at all the details and characteristics. Then close your eyes again and reconstruct the object in your mind, seeing it as perfectly as possible. Repeat this exercise until you succeed in representing this object clearly. You must see it in your mind as if you had seen it with your eyes.

With the practice you have had from the exercises before, now create the image of a black circle mentally. Once you have captured this image, use your will to maintain the vision. If you need to, use the index finger pressure technique, maintaining this pressure for about 30 seconds.

Now that your black circle is static, you are going to change the colour. Concentrate hard on the colour purple. Then say the word purple a few times. The important thing is the conviction with which you say the word, which should come from deep within you.

Maria Duval says now you try to see your black circle get gradually lighter, making it purple by using your will. This will be easy for you to do because your circle does not have any will of it own. It cannot but obey you. It is what you want it to be and nothing else.

Lastly, once the colour has changed, start working on the now purple circle again, making it change to other colours...

Maria Duval advises that by doing these series of visualization exercises, it will set you on a firm foundation to start your creative visualisation process such that you will gain the most with less effort.

Creative Visualisation Exercise 2

I talk about Maria Duval's Creative Visualisation Exercise a couple of posts ago and the feedback I receive is positive. I am glad there are some visitors who loyally follow this blog and I am really appreciative of your kind gesture. Let me know if you have a blog and I will follow its RSS as a a sign of reciprocation.

Creative visualisation is a mental technique of imaging and visualising as clear pictures of the positive events that you wish to happen in your life, until it becomes true event.

If you have practiced Exercise 1, now you have been keen to practise Exercise 2 as well. To make it more streamlined, I have written this Maria Duval's mental technique at eHow.com as a series of steps for you to follow.

The first 2 steps are :

Step 1
Take a piece of paper and draw a black dot in the middle. (size of the dot is not important as long as it is clearly visible)


Step 2
Sit down comfortably and look at the black dot for about 1 or 2 minutes. Relax and empty your mind and let any thoughts that come in to dissipate.

Creative Visualisation Exercise 1

Before I start explaining Maria Duval's creative visualisation exercise 1, let me explain and recap what is the exact meaning of "Creative Visualisation". I have written about this topic before, however, there's no harm repeating once again in the latest blog post.

Creative Visualisation
In a simple term, this is a technique for representing a desired object with the help of some or a series of mental images in the form of thoughts. It is the ability to imagine, to form up images in your head repeated with affirmative thoughts, until they become an actual event that happens in your life.

Creative Visualisation Exercise 1
When you are walking, get into the habit of looking attentively at the people you meet and discipline yourself to remember as accurately as possible the cut and color of their clothes, their haircut, gestures, facial characteristics.

By getting into the habit of doing this, you will become more observant and you will be able to remember what you have seen for longer. You will also be prepared for more complex form of concentration, and it will help you with the creation of mental images when you start on the next two Maria Duval's visualisation exercises.

Maria Duval - Learning to relax

Maria Duval's "instant relaxation" technique.

This technique allows you to restore your energy anywhere and at anytime, and it can be done in a short time like a few minutes.

To perform this technique, first of all you need to settle down comfortably, or you can lay down. Close your eyes and carry out an isometric contraction of all your muscles and then breath deeply.

With each exhalation, let your tiredness, worries and tensions flow out through your heels into the depths of the earth.

Pause at the end of each exhalation, before allowing the air to flow back into your lungs bringing tranquility, peace and calmness.

During the pause after each inhalation, "feel" the space within your whole body.

Next visualise yourself in an "idea" relaxing environment, like sea, river, forest, meadow, mountain, cave, or waterfall, where you can stay completely relaxed. You can visualise about the singing oriole at the near side of the river, the figure-like white clouds at the far sky, periodic splashing of the wave at the beach rocks, a peaceful garden with light breeze or two meters underneath a coral atoll.

At this place, use the energy of colours to restore your energy. For example, imagine a beautiful rainbow: breath in the colour as if the air you were breathing was coloured - which corresponds to your needs of the moment and allow it to spread through your body.

Next, Maria Duval teaches that as you breath out, let it flow out through your heels. Return to everyday reality by stretching fully.

This is the "instant relaxation" technique which you can use to recharge your batteries with physical and mental energy is just a few minutes. Try it. It is quite effective.

Maria Duval - Rituals and Visualisation

The Amazing Magic Powers of Rituals

Do you know what is the meaning of ritual? According to Maria Duval, there is magic in a ritual and this is a sacred ceremony which is composed of succession thoughts, gestures, and words with all three linked and coordinated.

Magic rituals ought to be taken very seriously as the process is not entertainment nor fun. People involved have to devote a great deal of spiritual energy, mental energy and physical energy and also to obey ritual's indispensable set of rules so that it can be successful executed. The three basic rules of magic and initiate, namely, daring, knowledge and discretion.

Maria Duval says, if anyone wants to improve life and shape future, there is a great tool which everyone can use and is already "built in". That is the power of creative visualisation.

Creative Visualisation

I have written about visualisation a few times and it is an interesting subject to me. What is visualisation exactly? This is an art form which anyone can practise and improve their mind. Basically it means forming an image, a positive and beautiful image so as to invigorate and motivate you, in your thoughts. The objective is to firm up this image into something so strong and it becomes a reality in your life later.

Maria Duval also believes another advantage is to let you have a focused mind. There are people who have absolutely no problem seeing a clear and precise image. Some prefer to concentrate hard, while others sense, or become aware of a feeling. All these different methods are all effective.

Feel


One critical ingredient is a burning desire to achieve something you want in life. Needless to say, this is something that comes right from the bottom of your heart and you wish to see it coming true and it must be something that is spiritually good to the society and people around you.

Maria Duval points out this must be something felt deeply and seen clearly. Thoughts must be emotions and are full. Mental images accompanied by powerful emotions. They must be charged with positive emotions, with the joy you feel living your dream, as if it were already a reality.

Burying the past

Many people are caught by the traps from the past or personal history which entangled them and make them unforgiving of the people who may have hurt them before. I can totally understand the feeling because I was then always saying this to myself "one day I'm going to repay to you ten times more than what you have done to me" whenever I met this person.

It was bitter feeling I tell ya. Wise men let go of the unhappy past for it hinders your joy of life.

Psychic Maria Duval has this set of visualisation so that you can practise and you'll bury the unhappy pasts.

Just perform it for a few minutes once a week for three weeks will do.

Visualise this:

"Close your eyes and breathe out three times. You are walking along a country lane scattered with rocks that you clear from the path. When you reach the end of the lane, you sit down under a tree. Pull off a leaf and write down everything that has been troubling you, all your regrets and all the things standing in your way.

You use the sap of the tree as ink. Dig a hole, in the knowledge that you are going to bury the past that is already dead, although it is still alive within you, and in doing so, it will disintegrate.

Also write on the leaf the date which you want this past to disappear. Place the leaf in the hole, cover it with earth and quickly retrace your steps, noting if the lane has changed. Open your eyes."

As you can see this is a really simple visualisation exercise which are simple but effective. Try it if you want to let go of the unhappy pasts.

Visualise your life to the smallest details

In your everyday life, your way of being and acting is the basic material that you will use to improve or radically transform your life. You are going to "make into reality" the mental images that you create. That is to say, everything you do, your relationships with others, your love life, family life and etc..

Place all your energy in visualising what you want in the smallest details, and how to obtain it, as if you have already achieved it.

Clairvoyant Maria Duval says this is highly valuable, whatever you aim you seek to achieve: more money, your own house, a new car, best friends, luck in love, excellent academic results, work promotion, superb health and many others..

And it is also highly important that you concentrate on one single wish, one desire or one project at any one time.

Imagination

Do you want your wishes to come true? Your projects to come to fruition? For Providence to generously fill your needs?

Run in your mind a film in which they have already come true. Imagine yourself saying, doing, being and having what you want to say, do, be and have...and harvest the satisfaction, honours and benefits.

If you have a money problem, imagine yourself winning the lottery..see yourself banking in that big cheque, imagine your new grand house, and that flashy car at your garage..life would be really complete, wouldn't it?

Or you feel lonely in life and you desperately want to meet the person of your life. That life partner that will be with you all times. You imagine how that person looks like, meeting that person, sharing great moments with that person and having intimate times with that person. All these are areas that you can visualise. I know it sounds like daydreaming. However, there is real psychic power to visualisation as I have explained in earlier posts.

Learn to relax

Clairvoyant Marie Callas says that visualisation is in fact, seeing the mental image that you create. But if you have problems, you can just concentrate on "thinking" about it or be aware of the feeling that your image or scenario evokes.

A mental image that lacks clarity or is a little "confused" is not necessarily a bad one. If your mind tends to wander to other "parasite" images, bring it back patiently and gently towards the desired image.

Gradually the image grows in proportion to the state of your concentration and the time that you devote to it.

To sum up, the main obstacle to good concentration is physical and nervous tension. That's why it is important to relax. When you are relaxed, it is much easier to concentrate on the creation of a mental image and visualisation will be much better.

We have hidden limitless powers

As intelligent beings, we got to accept the fact that all of us have limitless power, most of them hidden in our subconscious without us ever even knowing in this lifetime. If you are one of the few that knows how to tap on this power, my congratulations to you!

One of our god-given ability is we can imagine whatever scenario you wish, to put a virtual scenery in your mind, and power to link to the higher self. In fact, visualisation enables you to dream your life and to think about your life before you make it happen in reality.

Psychic and clairvoyant Maria Duval is able to help you to improve your visualisation. She has devised some simple exercises and these will train your mind to reconstitute an image or subject which you have previously focused your attention on.

Multiply your intuition

Clairvoyant psychic Maria Duval says that by practising visualisation regularly you will multiply your intuition and creative abilities. Through it, you are going to bring about numerous circumstances in your life that will be as lucky as they are unexpected.

Great creators like artists, painters, scientists, inventors, composers and even sportsmen visualise regularly, or they are born with a gift to visualise and materialise their mental pictures to perfection.

If use well, visualisation that draws on the imagination, fantasy, creativity and inventiveness can accomplish miracles. There will have increased intuitive acumen and sets up a clear, uncluttered form of communications between you and your subconsciousness, in a universal language. Mostly important, Maria Duval regards visualisation as a positive programming of our subconsciousness.

Virtual images

Do you know that those virtual images in your mind are filled with light, meaning energy? This means through this energy, the mental images have enough properties essential to turn out to be real. They could take shape and materialise in daily life.

In other words, the universal cosmic energy intensifies and creates in the material world the vision contained in the virtual image. This process therefore contains all the secret art of visualisation, which is long held high regard by the ancient human intelligence.

Seeing through the eyes of the mind

Visualisation is actually a very easy technique. Most of us are visualising unknowingly when we go through over every day life. Through the imaginative power of our brain, we paint vivid mental images in our mind, and when you do it, you are exploiting a natural resource of the brain and a spiritual gift of the human beings.

So, to visualise is to project virtual images in your head. That is easy to us I guess. We do that all the time, like visualising about our future, our lovers, our nemesis and our aspirations. These mental images are latent in form, meaning exist in a probable state before taking actual form. The images could turn out real or not real. Therefore, Maria Duval says visualising is sighting through the eyes of the mind.

Visualisation

Mental images or visualisation is very ancient skill. Since very early times, humans had come to understand its great power through visualisation and its effects can bring to people. For example, during magical ceremonies, spiritual masters used the creation of "mental images" to enhance the level of occult activities.

It was then a frequent practice, the result of a very long and patient observation of the laws of the universe and the mechanisms of nature.

Maria Duval gives an example of the observation of nature teaches us that any animal that is incapable of defending themselves becomes the prey of a stronger species. Same here for mankind. We need to learn to "awaken" spiritually. In this respect, we are responsible for our evolution ans survival.

So through this visualisation, there is a precious spiritual tool that puts us in contact with the divine nature.

Get those bad thoughts off your mind

We all have thoughts and emotions so it is very often that out of the blue, our minds wander to a certain topic that is nothing in particular to what you are doing now, and often these are not nice thoughts. It may come back to haunt you and grip you and make you start to worry about things and life.

So that's where are good mind control comes in to purge these bad thoughts off your mind and giving you a fresh outlook in life once again.

It's especially useful if you can use the "creative visualisation" technique you learn from Maria Duval as it is very efficient to help you keep your mind clear and positive.

Maria Duval: How to Practise Feeling and Sensing

Relax closing your eyes, and breath deeply.
Breath slowly...Naturally...
Gradual relax...
Allow each muscle to slacken...

Remember something nice that happened to you recently, in the last few days. At this time you experience pleasurable physical feelings. This may be something delicious you have eaten. If so, think of the wonderful smell of this dish. Think what these smells evoked in you, even before you tasted the dish.

Next think of all the nice flavours that you tasted in your mouth when you ate this dish. Usually, if your evocation is sufficiently accurate, your mouth will water. This is the proof of the power of your evocations.

Now evoke another experience: A leisurely bath you have taken suddenly. You started by running the water in the bath. You added luxurious bath oil, a product that softened the water. Think about what went through your mind as you slipped gently into the tub, the gentle warmth of the water and the feeling of the bath oil on the skin.

Think about the feeling of laziness that came over you. Think about the feeling of deep relaxation and well-being that filled you. Try to spend several minutes reliving this experience.

Now evoke another experience of your choice, the most important thing being able to recall every single detail and feeling, as if you were back there.

You will see that visualising and feeling with emotion is much easier than you thought. It's a simple but vital part of each ritual.

This is one of the principle keys to success. It is this reality of your wish, your desire that will be transported to the Universe through the different vibrations used over the course of these power magic rituals.
