The eight torches of The Raw Games pictured below hold the flames of Oneness, The Children, The Elders, World Service, Personal Empowerment, The Worthy Opponent and Sacred Challenge and Community. As we bridge into our true divine nature and heritage as beings in service to one another, the earth and our true selves, we come to realize we are intrinsically interconnected in a precious web of life which enhances all experience. As we shift our collective consciousness through the dynamics of past paradigms on planet earth into new modes of collaboration, celebration and unconditional understanding, we become the World Bridgers, shouting from the proverbial rooftops that all is well, we have one another, and we shall overcome. The Rainbow Raw Games holds the torch for these high vibrational principles, offering the Eight Flames as an overlighting energy of the Games and as a tool for personal, community and global transformation. We honor the individual, Unity and the many lights.

The many lights signify a commonality amongst all. We all embody this light. The Flame of Oneness signifies there is Unity in our Diversity. As we celebrate our unique expressions, and simultaneously recongize our interconnectedness as One Whole Being expressing as Many, we have the singular power at our fingertips to express Life on planet earth in balance, together with a shared outcome. May it be so.

The Flame of the Children celebrates our future, and the future of harmony we are cultivating here at The Rainbow Raw Games. We are truly blessed to be in the presence of the upcoming generations, and to be granted positions of caring for them as elders, teachers, parents, friends and community members. May we always remember the children, the next generations, in all our collective decision making. May we always be kind, powerful, insightful role models for these upcoming generations, so that they might ride upon the wave of our incarnations with the greatest possible grace, ease, joy and forward movement for our entire world. And we give thanks.

The Flame of the Elders reminds us to be clearly grateful to those who have come before us. Their way has not always been easy. They have offered many gifts to us as their children, in myriad forms, including the give-away of dropping into a culture not yet awake, so that we might come through them and awaken now. They have cultivated their gifts each in their own ways according to their own capacities and desires, and while we are always recognizing things can and will be improved, we are in our steadfastness and uprightness as we remember to thank and be grateful for the wisdom, insight, learning, caring, love, guidance and devotion of our elders. May we become the greatest elders we can be to steward our world. May all elders be blessed and feel fulfilled in their life's missions. Aho!

The Flame of World Service speaks to our intrinsic nature as generous beings who wish to share our gifts with humanity and the planet in meaningful ways. In these delicate timelines in which we find ourselves now, many of us are awakening to a Higher Priority Structure for life and living. This includes our innate desire to be of assistance in re-visioning and re-creating worldly dynamics and structures which both fulfill us personally and allow us to take part in the highest levels of service with joy. We hold this torch for the increasing awareness, manifestation, and expression of the genius level of service in all who are stepping up to the plate and activating it within themselves. May we each walk our Highest Destiny Path of Service.

The Flame of Personal Empowerment envelopes us with the love designed just for us, to hold us, strengthen us, prepare us and cultivate us as we step into living as Who We Really Are. Personal Cultivation is a life's work which we can enjoy and enjoin with others to further co-create. The Rainbow Raw Games is a space created just for this divine purpose of holding space for each of us to express the Genius Empowered Beings we really are. All is well!

The Flame of the Worthy Opponent calls forth from within the dynamics of Sacred Interaction and The Sacred Challenge. When engaged with another at the level of play offered here in this context of The Rainbow Raw Games, we are in Heavenly Synchronicity, allowing the universal forces of sheer strength, power, love, delight and motivation-towards-fulfillment to sharpen the swords of our own strengths, talents, skills and inspirations. The word "compete" has its roots in "competere," a word which means "To Strive Together." The Worthy Opponent is to be honored in Games as an instrument of growth and cultivation designed by the Creative Power of Life Itself to take us to the next level of our personal initiations and the fulfillment of our intentions for expansion and refinement on a personal level. The Worthy Opponent therefore holds the torch for Us, as we become more fully who we are meant to be, in service to the One. Yes!

The Flame of Community is held here to signify we are one in many, and as we come together to create and live, we experience the Coming of Unity. In our Community Endeavours where we experience life together, we have the opportunity to bask in this sense of togetherness, and to further refine our intelligences toward deep flowering collaborative energies, ideas and celebrations. The Community is the Space, the Home in which we flourish, thrive, share, and express ourselves to the fullest. As we ripen as individuals, we rely upon the container of Community to gently hold us on the platform from which to co-create and expand. So be it.
