Peace #3: The Sacred word SHALOM
The sacred teaching of the word “Shalom” peace in ancient Hebrew
This meditation reveals the profound teaching hidden within the Hebrew word "shalom"—peace as four sacred forces: silence, learning, grounding, and water consciousness. Our bodies are essentially sacred vessels of primordial water (97% water molecules) that hold memory and consciousness from the beginning of creation.
Key Practice: By imagining ourselves as the deep ocean floor—where endless life processes occur in profound silence—we access a state of peace that is both dynamic and still. This isn't passive peace, but the vibrant silence found in the depths where life thrives beyond the surface disturbances.
The Teaching: True peace begins with silence (the "shh" of shalom) and involves grounding divine wisdom into the water consciousness of our being. We can learn to sense the vast, supportive silence that is always present within us, regardless of surface turbulence.
We are always held in the luminous waters of being—supported by the eternal teacher within.
