Prayer Group and Meditation GroupWelcome to the International Prayer & Meditation Group. In 2005 Lady Fontaine founded the Inner Circle Prayer and Meditation Group. This consisted of 12 extraordinary individuals (Inner Circle) who are the core to this prayer group. At regular intervals throughout each day members of the Inner Circle donate their time to build a powerful prayer circle to aid you in your prayer requests. The power of prayer is intensified as others join in so as our membership grows, the power of our prayer and meditation groups increases tenfold (or more). The power of prayer has been proven. There have been several well documented studies proving the power of prayer and meditation. On Wednesday January 16, 2002 Time Magazine reported that Dr Elizabeth Targ was granted over one million dollars from the National Institutes of Health for two separate studies on the power of prayer. There, of course are skeptics as well, but the evidence is substantial that the power of prayer DOES work! Dr. Targ references a 1998 study, after selecting practicing healers from a number of traditions — Christians, Buddhists, Jews, Indian shamans — she supplied them with the first names, blood counts and photographs of 20 patients with advanced AIDS. For an hour a day, over a ten-week period, the healers concentrated their thoughts on the pictures of these patients, but not on those of a control group of 20 other AIDS patients. According to Targ, the prayed-for patients had fewer and less severe new illnesses, fewer doctor visits, fewer hospitalizations and were generally in better moods than those in the control group. The technique, she believes, can even work on nonhuman species. In a speech, she described an experiment performed by another group in which remote healing was used to shrink tumors in mice. And, she reported, the greater the distance between healer and mouse in that experiment, the greater the effect! The connection, Targ suggests, "could be actuated through the agency of God, consciousness, love, electrons or a combination." Our experience in the past several years with this prayer and meditation group has been monumental. We have personally experienced and our members tell us of the gifts of love, prosperity, happiness, etc that are blessings the lives of those who join in the power of prayer. During the allocated times, you may chose to either pray or meditate. Either way, you will be linking with OUR energy and power and the power of your prayer is greatly increased. Prayer is ASKING. Meditation is RECEIVING. Doing either during the allocated times can produce amazing results in your life. We have seen many miracles materialize for those who join us in prayer/meditation at the specific times. This is a wonderful opportunity to deepen your own healing, peace, and understanding as you extend it to others. As you create miracles in your life you are also helping to heal each member and their families and beyond! The power of prayer is amazing and we welcome you on this important and exciting journey! Unity in the Power of Prayer: Prayer Groups are so powerful because there is power in the Unity of Prayer. Jesus spoke about the power of agreement in Matthew 18:19: "Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven." Spiritual gurus often meditate and chant together. In the vedic culture hundreds of spiritual masters assemble and chant hundreds of repetitions of mantras which are said to shape reality. Prayer works. There is power in the Unity of Prayer!!! The International Prayer & Meditation Group uses 'symbols' to link our energies so no matter where on the planet you are.. when you join in with us at the allotted times you will 'link' with our energy by spending just a few minutes gazing at a specific picture or symbol we provide for each month's prayer and meditation. How this Works: Attached are instructions, schedules and suggested prayers and meditations, You do NOT have to use our prayers or meditations - these are just a few that we have used through the years that we find helpful and powerful. The best prayers are ones that have special meaning to you. Either your own words or prayers that you know and touch you in a meaningful way. Each day we have allocated times that members of our Inner Circle are working on your behalf. We welcome you to join in at any of these times. For best results we ask that you spend 'at least' 5 mins each day for a month working on your request. If you desire change and quicker results, you can spend 15 minutes up to one hour in the power of prayer or meditation at the 'set' times we published in the attached. You may chose to do either prayer or meditation or any combination at these times. We have attached our first 3 months schedules. We generally release our schedules 3 months at a time. By the end of February 2009 you will receive the schedule for the next 3 months. Each month we have one or more days for various specialty healings. Prosperity, Love, healing, etc. One or two days each month are dedicated to the Kabbalah 72 Names of God Meditations, We highly suggest that you purchase the book or CD (available at amazon and most bookstores). There are a series of 72 meditations that we do each hour on those days. You may join in prayer or meditation with us on any of the allocated days. Symbols/Photos & Sacred Words: The symbols/photos and sacred words/mantras have been carefully selected for you. Each has been charged and blessed before this email was sent to you. So, what that means is - when you follow the instructions below - you automatically link with the energy of the 12 Spiritual Maters who comprise the Inner Circle Prayer Group. This is automatic and WILL happen. Don’t analyze or over-intellectualize it. We have proven this to be effective and it works! HOW TO PRAY and LINK TO US: 1. Find a quiet place. If you are mediating you may want to turn on soothing music or light a candle. 2. At the allotted times -take the picture or symbol of the month hold it in your hands. 3. Take several deep breaths as you look at the picture or symbol. Breath in (hold for 2-5 seconds) and breath out slowly (to a count of '5'). 4. As you continue gazing at the photo/symbol begin to see a white light illuminating it. Imagine as if a spotlight was shining brightly on the photo/symbol. Feel the white light energy radiate from the symbol to your hands, and body and all around you. As you do this at the allotted times - your energy is linking with the Inner Core prayer group. 5. Begin saying the prayer/meditation word or mantra. 6. Begin prayer/meditation for at least 5 minutes (up to 15 mins when possible) 7. End prayer/meditation and go on with your day. 8. Trust that your prayers *WILL* be answered. MEDITATIONS: There are countless ways to meditate and countless meditations. If you chose to meditate with us, you can use any meditation you want. The important thing is that you use our symbol and word in your meditations so you can link with our energy. EMERGENCY REQUESTS: If you have an Emergency Prayer Request - please email with details. Generally, we do not accept ‘love’ requests as dire emergencies. Health and financial emergencies have the first priority. We have specific days each month where we ask all the members to spend a few minutes sending love and blessing to the entire prayer group and world but we accept and perform Emergency prayer requests as they come in. Why we charge: Initially when we set up this prayer and meditation group we asked for donations to help us out. Much to our amazement we ended up receiving a great deal of money from people who were members. We are not a church nor charity and we don’t have the means to help thousands of people with money or charity so we donated the money to the Salvation Army. So, for now we have decided to charge a minimal yearly membership fee which goes towards our administrative expenses to do this Prayer & Meditation Circle. |
