The Power of Words.
A secret word that unlocks the hidden strengths and talents in yourself and others.
I just finished reading a powerful book. All about words. The root of words, the strength of words, etymology. What a beautiful thing.
Aspire, Discovering your purpose through the power of words. by Kevin Hall
I will share with you some of the words, and their power.
Before this word is spoken the palms of the hands are pressed together, the head is bowed, and the hands touch the heart.
Namaste (pronounced nah-mah-STAY)
If you have practiced Yoga, you may have heard this word. Roughly translated it means'
“The divine light within me salutes the divine light within you,
I salute what you do best, I salute your natural gifts. I honor your uniqueness and your specialness.”
Pretty powerful huh?
So what do you think would happen if we spoke a single word with that much power, strength and energy to each person we greet?
Be who you are born to be.
Open your gifts AND USE THEM!
The cave that holds our greatest gifts also holds our biggest fear.
When we are around a true friend, we are free to be ourselves.
Are you a true friend?
The next word I want to share with you is called a secret word, it unlocks the potential inside each of us and gives us permission to Love.
This word is GENSHAI
(Pronounced Gen-SHY)
>
This word means that you would never treat another person that would make them feel small.
Not yourself, not anyone.
Say this aloud with me:
1- I am Worthy.
2-I am capable.
3-I am deserving.
4-I forgive myself.
5-I trust myself.
When we choose to treat everyone as a unique and valuable person, we would never place ourselves above, nor below anyone. We are all on a path, and we have learned valuable and irreplaceable lessons along the way. Others are not smaller than ourselves, nor are we smaller than anyone else.
The last word I will share with you today is
OLLIN-
this is an Aztec word that means exactly what you say... “All-in” it is what they would use when their were earthquakes, and emergencies implying that AT THIS MOMENT we are required to MOVE & ACT.
Immediately and without delay.
Move on something you felt moved to do, respond to the inspiration, insight and do it NOW.
When inspiration strikes it is meant to be acted upon IMMEDIATELY
