I met the group as they departed customs at LAX and we went together to wait for our flight to Guadalajara. It was obvious at this first meeting that we were ready for an exciting and enlightening adventure. Our first 3 nights we stayed at the Hotel Frances---this has been a hotel for 450 years. Some of our people felt a bit uncomfortable staying in a hotel that is well known for having spirit phenomenon but we talked about the fact the if we are positive and light nothing negative is able to touch us. Everything worked out fine.
During our stay in Guadalajara we visited Lake Chapala and the village of Ajijic (Ah-ha-hec). This area is full of ancient spiritual energy as well as some of the women of the indigenous mountain people come to trade their wares. We also visited the town of Tequila and visited the Tequila factory.
Everyone on the tour participated in the powerful energy of the ruins at Tzintzuntzan. 3 pyramids built in the shape of butterflies---Mariposa in Spanish---. Some had past life recall, some saw visions of past events. The love and support among our members was an important part of everyone experiencing the opening of spiritual sensitivity. During dinner at the hotel in Patzcuaro we all experienced sharing our personal feelings and experiences. I was so impressed with the willingness of everyone to share with each others.
Arrived by boat at Isla de Janitzio at Patzcuaro lake. Heavy rain yet it was an exciting adventure as we moved closer and closer to this powerful island. To arrive at the huge statue dedicated to the energy of the Mexican Revolution we had to climb a winding walkway weaving amount shops and homes. I was dealing with an injured leg---injury during a recent trip to Alaska---and often had to be helped by members of our group. I never had to ask for help it was always offered. Traveling to these powerful energy locations was a rewarding experience but the most valuable thing was the feeling of traveling with spiritual brothers and sisters and observing as we all met and shared with the local people. The feeling of love and being part of the building of bridges between races and cultures was wonderful.
We all shared in a powerful event of healing at a location named Agua (water) de Tlacote. Thousands of people from all over the world have come to this location to drink this healing water. People with illnesses such as cancer, arthritis, AIDS have had miracles healing and the center has many thousands of testimonials including the basketball great "Magic" Johnson. When we arrived the location was closed but our amazing tour guide "knew" that we would be able to receive entrance and we did receive a private audience. I will never stop sharing the story of our tour guides faith and strength as well as the witnessing of the healing water. All of our people drank this water and not one person had an illness for during this trip. Even when some of us ate food from local street vendors everyone remained well.
Next stop Mexico City. I had warned everyone about how dirty and polluted Mexico City is but we arrived to clear and beautiful weather. Locals have worked so hard to clear up the problems and this is a demonstration of the power that each of us holds when dealing with social problems. Each of our group participated in a Rose Healing at our hotel in Mexico City. I learned the rose healing technique from Bernice Falling Leaves and it has been a joy to witness how the people I work with in Japan have embraced this wonderful experience.
