thank you dear @NighHawk999
Here I am, looking for a way to connect with Amitabha Buddha in a way that works for me and thought to share one way of going about it - asking Chat GPT for ideas.
I wonder how Buddhist Lamas would think about this approach lol
In the absence of a lama though, I think one’s intuition plus books plus Chat GPT might do before one gets advanced in such practices.

I will be honest with you Beloved, I only saw the beginning (first five minutes) but the intention of it was manifesting in the minutes after! Magic

Loved the Week 1 advice. If you can share weeks 2, 3, and 4, I would deeply appreciate it
I think they might say something like, the world is burning, we are in a Dark age, and we need all hands on deck to help put out all the fires and shed Light on the darkness.
So I think they would approve of Chatgpt and AI in helping implement the teachings, but I also think they would advise everyone to double and triple check the information. (Kind of like reading a wikipedia article). These tech resources are great places to begin an injury, and expand knowledge, but they shouldnt be held as the arbitors of Truth. Always best to fact check resources with multiple teachers and Sanghas.

Focus: Deepening your inner dialogue with Amitabha Buddha and cultivating a sense of protection in your work.
Sit in meditation and visualize traveling toward the Pure Land of Amitabha.
See a golden lotus opening beneath you as Amitabha’s light welcomes you.
Ask inwardly: “How can I best serve as a guide and healer?”
Notice any words, sensations, or symbols—write them down after meditation.
Before bed, call upon Amitabha’s presence to guide your dreams or inner journeys.
Repeat before sleep:
“Amitabha, guide me through realms of wisdom and clarity. May I awaken to your presence in my dreams and visions.”
Keep a dream journal to track any messages received.
Before working with a client, visualize a sphere of Amitabha’s red-golden light surrounding the space.
Chant “Namo Amituofo” three times, dedicating the session to compassionate wisdom and healing.
Imagine your client also receiving this light, purifying any negative energy.
Focus: Actively using Amitabha’s guidance in therapy sessions, psychedelic journeys, and personal practice.
When feeling uncertain or seeking insight, pause and silently ask Amitabha for guidance.
Tune into any intuitive nudges, images, or words—let them inform your response.
Imagine Amitabha’s light flowing through your voice, offering clarity and healing.
Before beginning a session, visualize Amitabha standing behind you, radiating protective energy.
Say silently:
“May the light of Amitabha surround and protect this space. May this healing journey be blessed with wisdom and compassion.”
After the session, visualize his light dissolving any lingering energies into pure light.
Take a mindful moment in nature or a quiet space.
Imagine this world as Amitabha’s Pure Land, filled with radiant wisdom and compassion.
Ask: “How can I embody the qualities of the Pure Land in my work today?”
Focus: Strengthening trust in Amitabha’s guidance, finalizing rituals, and dedicating your practice to all beings.
Meditate without expectations, simply sitting in Amitabha’s light.
If thoughts arise, gently return to “Namo Amituofo” or your breath.
Allow his wisdom to reveal itself naturally over time.
Reflect on how Amitabha’s guidance has appeared in your life this past month.
Offer gratitude:
“May all beings benefit from Amitabha’s infinite light. May wisdom and compassion increase in the world.”
Dedicate any merit gained from your practice to clients, loved ones, and all sentient beings.
Perform a ceremonial invocation to seal the connection with Amitabha’s guidance:
Light candles and incense at your altar.
Offer a bowl of pure water as a symbol of clarity.
Chant “Namo Amituofo” while visualizing his light expanding through your life and work.
Sit quietly, receiving his blessings and final insights."

who is she?
Dreamt I was born on a lotus and she was holding me in a way that I felt totally loved throughout my being, and kept that up for a very long time. Maybe an aspiration, maybe the future, maybe imagination?

interesting… I had a similar dream on the 11th, but the Goddess was a friend of mine. just shared it here:
it was with Satya (my friend who delivers healing in the jungle) - I call some of my friends “Goddess” because they indeed already have a lot of Goddess inside.
the dream was very simple:
I was in a warm embrace with her for a LONG time. at one point she mentioned that perhaps I didn’t know who she was. I looked into her eyes and said: “I know perfectly who you are” and shared how marvelous it was to be hugging her. Woke up with this music:

I would say that it happened in the present! experiencing this feeling is UAU! We are SO Blessed!
