May 2011: Divine Love


May the beauty of what you love be what you do. ~Rumi

May 2011: Divine Love
As we continue to create our lives through the power of true community, the "journey is the destination" takes on new meaning. For it is cradled in the arms of our people, our tribe that we open ourselves to the presence of divine love. God and Goddess is in the people. Never is that more apparent than when we live our life surrounded by our soul group. Living in true community means much more than just friendship, it means that we are experiencing the divine through our relationship to everything in our field of awareness. And as this awareness increases, the gratitude and appreciation that we have for each other, the earth and nature, our inventions and technology, and all of our heavenly counterparts draws us ever nearer to our creator and the reality of our own magnificence. Our community provides a stable container to create, invent, relate, grow, heal, transform and love like never before! And finally we come to the nucleus of our own souls and step into our higher self and into our destiny. We realize that we are actually doing it - We are bringing heaven to earth. And it is in that moment of clarity and largesse of Spirit that we understand that we ARE sacred, divine love in the flesh. And  this love has crept upon us, sneeking right into our way of life, inch by inch, guiding and directing us to some unimaginable joy. And we are made whole.
Bright blessings to all!

"The sweetest sounds to mortals given, Are heard in Mother, Home, and Heaven". ~William Goldsmith Brown

Sai Maa Pure Light Initiation Ceremony



Bringing Enlightenment to the World

You are cordially invited to the Sai Maa Pure Light (Diksha) Initiation Ceremony on APRIL 17th, Sunday afternoon 3-5pm at Church of Spiritual Light, 1939 Park Meadows Dr, Fort Myers, FL 33907.
There is no cost for this ceremony, however, we are requesting a $20 fee to cover expenses. The ceremony will be conducted by Rev. Renee Bledsoe.

After the initiation you will be a part of the spritual lineage of Sai Ma and able to both give and receive the Pure Light Sai Maa Diksha Blessing.



“A Community without the tradition of Diksha is like a desert.  Only by wisdom can we understand how to make our life holy and sanctified. This wisdom itself is known as Diksha.” ~ Sai Maa

The Sanskrit word Diksha comes from the root da, to give plus ksi, to destroy and therefore is the process that bestows transcendental, spiritual knowledge while at the same time destroying the seeds of ignorance.  Many Great Masters have offered Diksha in many different forms however, Sai Maa Lakshmi Devi has brought us a simple, systematic approach that can be easily learned and offered by everyone.  We call this Sai Maa Diksha.

We are entering a remarkable time for the world, unlike any other in recorded history.  There is a Great Shift, a universal transformation taking place that will propel humankind from doubt and confusion, into a Golden Age of Joy, Peace and Understanding.  Powerful new energies are being generated and radiated throughout the world.  Great blessings are being showered upon us.

Sai Maa tells us that the most effective tool to take full advantage of these Divine Gifts is the practice of giving and receiving Sai Maa Diksha.  This Pure Energy and Light begins a process of dynamic change, activating our dormant spiritual powers, releasing all that no longer serves us, opening the path to Enlightenment.

In an unprecedented gesture of generosity, Sai Maa is freely offering this magnificent gift to the world.  If you are ready to bring Sai Maa Diksha to our friends and family, ready to train others and to be an active participant in the Great Shift, the following information is available to support you.

This Pure Energy and Light begins a process of dynamic change, activating our dormant spiritual powers, releasing all that no longer serves us, opening the path to Enlightenment.  Different spiritual lineages offer different intentions with their Diksha. Sai Maa Diksha is the initiation of bliss; bliss being an aspect of Enlightenment.

April 2011: Blessings of Light


“Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.” - Nathaniel Hawthorne

This month we will be exploring the power of the Light in our lives. The Church of Spiritual Light will be 3 years old this month! In that time our community has received many blessings, much healing and ever deepening pathways to enlightenment. The Light is the means by which all this has been accomplished.

“The Light is more than some abstract, unknowable energy force. Light is Truth. If Light is truth, then darkness must be lies. Each and every lie we tell to ourselves and others casts the shadow of separation upon us. Every time even the most minor deception is revealed and the truth is made known we are re-united with the Light. So, Let there be Light. Those are the words by which you can create your own magnificent world.” - Rev. Renee Bledsoe. Bright blessings to all!

"Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the light." ~ Groucho Marx

Trinity Crystal Bowl Meditation & Energy Healing


“The only way to discover the limits of the possible
is to go beyond them into the impossible.” -Arthur C. Clarke

Join us for our twice monthly Crystal Bowl Meditation and Energy Healing Event. Come and experience the power of healing, release and renewal through the combined modalities of sound healing with the crystal bowls and Energy healing, with modalities such as Theta Healing, Reiki, Pure Light (Diksha), Shamanic Soul Retrieval and Imprint Removal, Etheric Healing, Angelic and Ascended Master Healing, Crystal Therapy and Prayer. This class is facilitated by Pamela Kinton, Peggy Bridenbaker, Linda Becker, Renee Bledsoe and other certified energy healers.

The crystal comes from the earth, but the sound comes from above. Every cell in your body is a sound resonator. Our bodily systems respond to sound vibration, as do our mental and emotional states of consciousness.Everything is Energy - Light, Color and Sound - What better way to speak the essential language of your being than through the beauty of the Crystal Bowls?

All healing techniques employed involve the facilitation of the theta brainwave state and the awareness and acknowledgement that spiritual healing occurs through the higher powers of creation. In most cases, the energy practitioner is either removing or redirecting energy in the body so that the body's own innate ability to heal and thrive is restored. We feel that combining the crystal bowls with the energy healing modalities brings everything to a whole new level of empowerment, healing and enlightenment.

This event is designed to give the community an experience of the power of energy healing, as well as the crystal bowl meditation. While most will find that coming to this event is a wonderful way to maintain their energy body, many others are in periods of crisis or rebirth. If you ever feel that you require more privacy or more intensive attention all of our practitioners are available for private sessions. Often the energy of a group is not suitable for those who may need to go further into belief systems and to reach deeper levels of energetic restoration. Please do not hesitate to contact us.

“Energy healing restores the bodies own inner physician.”
