We’re going to do a meditation to awaken the inner sun.
At the moment there’s a huge amount of intense energy, a very powerful positive energy. As this energy is pouring down on us to elevate us and awaken us, the not-so-enlightened parts in us (the parts we suppressed), become resistant in coming to the surface. In which case, people may become negative, irritable, angry, emotional… and any range of responses that we may come up with when faced with opposites. It becomes intense because it’s difficult to let go of the past.
We are people, we’re creatures of habit and it’s hard to let go and embrace something we don’t know about or perhaps we’re scared of. We are all worried about who will we become if we let go of who we used to be…
And to help us on that path; to help with that transformational period, I suggest we do this meditation. We will go inside and find that powerful sun; that powerful source of energy within you that is so strong and so amazing that you will start shining inside out.
And if light meets light there will be no resistance. And anything else will naturally go away because when the sun shines it may be too bright, and people need to find shade. We need to find that inner shine so that anything else will flee before it – but we will grow and expand and manifest ourselves as who we’re supposed to be.
To start, please sit comfortably. Take a deep breath… take a breath into your heart space, hold it for a moment… and breathe it out slowly.
Let’s do it again. Breathe into your heart space, hold it for a moment, let the energy swish inside you; pick up all that’s no longer needed and exhale it, let it all out.
And again… breathe into your heart space… and out into the universe.
Pay attention to your breath, to your body. If you’re sensitive you might notice the energy that travels from your crown down into your roots, through you, around you. If you’re not aware of that, that’s okay. Just listen to your breath.
Make sure your breath becomes deep and your exhale is longer than your inhale…
And as you relax, I invite you to go within, look into the heart space. If you point your awareness to the heart space at first you may see nothing at all. Or, you may see a cosmos, space with stars, just darkness; anything that might speak to you. Whatever it is that you see and feel, it is what you need to experience in this moment now.
As we peer into the heart space, imagine that you are indeed floating in space. That space is made of millions of galaxies. There’s no beginning, there’s no end, there’s no up, there’s no down… there’s just now and your awareness in that space.
Notice how it feels to be in that space. Do you feel scared? Alone? Or do you feel at one and joyous and free? If you feel alone or scared, it means that you have disconnected yourself from the source by worrying or paying attention too much to the concerns around you in your daily life.
Sometimes the challenges life sends to us may be overwhelming and it is easy enough if you do not pay attention, to be swept with it. At some point we forget that we are attached to that space. But just like waves in the ocean, we are part of that ocean of life and we cannot be separated from it.
There’s only one of us although in various manifestations as different independent naturally existing waves; it doesn’t mean that our existence is illusion – but it does mean that we are part of a great whole… one evolving, constantly changing growing entity which is life. Some of you may call it God, others may call it universe, life, energy; whatever speaks to you.
You may have forgotten that you are part of that whole, and that you can relax into it. You will be supported because behind you there’s a huge ocean of life waiting to love you and hug you and support all your needs. Just focus on enjoying where you are now; the freedom… freedom of boundaries, of tiredness, of responsibilities, of hardships… freedom from time limits, money concerns. You are free in the now, right here right now, in that moment in space where we are now… you are free.
You are a perfect, whole, good, divine being; as perfect as you need to be right here right now. Enjoy that feeling.
Do not worry about the future or past. If your mind wanders off just bring it back, and enjoy that feeling of freedom and joy; and a little bit like child at play… fun. When was the last time you felt that life was really fun?
Float and feel that fun, feel that joy. Now the more joy you feel, the more happy and content you become with who you are in that space, in that moment where we are right here right now. Notice that we’re gradually gravitating deeper and deeper into that space; into that heart space. The space ahead of us. Of course, there’s no direction so wherever intuitively your attention is pulled towards.
Over there, there is some glow. There’s something that pulls you towards that area. It might be a light; beautiful auroras of colourful lights… or maybe sound or music if you are audio sensory. Or perhaps just a sense of knowing that this is where you want to go. This is where I want to be.
And as we go towards that, we float slowly, gently, peacefully towards that glow, towards that area.
We see a gentle green-coloured mist. Maybe it’s light turquoise or green; warm green forest green… whatever feels right for you will be the right colour. It is calling you, embracing you…
And as you float forward, you are being embraced gently by that mist, colourful mist. It surrounds you gently. You can barely feel it on your skin but it gently surrounds you and it feels as if you’re being cleansed.
Your body is being cleansed, your auric field is being cleansed… your super-conscious awareness is clarified… It’s as if you’re undergoing a kind of MOT for your body and soul, re-balancing your chakras, very gently.
Some of you may feel nothing at all apart of that gentle sensation of peace. Some of you might feel quite intense emotions and energies floating, cleansing your body and making it shine.
Remember to seep the breathing, to keep that sensation of pulsing with life; with each breath you’re pulsing; this connection with the universal mother, the universal life…
Just as a baby connects to the mother while floating in the womb, we’re never quite separated from the universal womb, from the universal supply of our being, our living. We can imagine that we are independent self-reliant beings, that we don’t need a guide to sort our life. In reality, something there – I call it God, you can call it Life – something there is in charge and takes one pull for that soul connection to withdraw and then there’s not control or need for the body at all.
In a way we are really deeply connected to that bigger self and our experience in the body is not as body that may contain the soul or perhaps has a little bit of it on the middle. We are the soul that is at the moment temporarily using this small body to manifest what it came here to learn and grow and experience so that we can report back for life to experience itself further – constant creation of reality together with life.
And as we’re undergoing this cleansing; this deep profound cleansing with that gentle mist, we’re sinking deeper and deeper into that area. It’s as if we are going through a cloud.
And as we emerge from the mist, our body feels energized but gentle, relaxed… calm… all your chakras are balanced. You are glowing with inner peace; with that remembered connection to life.
We pass that mist and come out on the other side, we see in front of us a lake… a beautiful absolutely amazing lake. You can decide what you see, how it is surrounded. Is it with beautiful trees and mountains or is if perhaps fields? Whatever feels right to you.
This beautiful lake, this is where your divinity is seated in the point of touch with your body.
This is the lake of your inner peace, your inner sense of calm… the bliss. It’s absolutely still. No wind to stir it; the surface is totally clear. You can hear the birds but the lake is beautiful and still, it’s so still that everything around it feels extra-alive, extra-glowing.
But the lake itself has a supernatural quality to it. It emanates peace. It emanates joy, wholeness…
Now if you have any question that bothers you or you have a concern about something – just one. Choose one that bothers you most. Imagine that you have a pebble in your hand, that this pebble is the concern you want to know about. Gently throw it into the lake and see the shapes it leaves in its wake and feel the ripples it sends through the lake of bliss.
And then wait and see for the answer to come up. It might be a word, it might be a thought or emotion or an image. It may be that nothing will happen right now but in the next few days you will suddenly have an intuitive knowing of what is the answer to your query.
You have asked; now leave it. Don’t worry about it. You have asked and it is taken care of.
You need to focus back on that sense of peace. Touching it brings that peace into your heart, into the very space of the universe, into that fabric of existence. So right here, right now you’re creating the fabric of your life full if bliss, peace, joy… calmness, awareness, compassion.
Breathe in that lake’s serenity. Feel its good qualities settling into you. Feel joy for no other reason than being alive… alive right here right now.
You don’t need anything, nothing bothers you in this space, in that area where we are now. This time, right here right now all is well. Life looks after you. You are safe. It okay; it is safe to be okay and you’re okay to be okay. Accept that, it’s all right. Your worries, your egos don’t need to be. Your mind doesn’t need to fight now for existence, for survival because you are safe here.
You don’t need to worry about tomorrow or the past. Right here right now, you’re fine. All is well. You are safe, whole and complete. Feel this truth in your body. Feel it emanating from the lake.
And as we sit here in this area, in that space, I want you to bring your chin down to your chest so that we are looking with the chin pointing down. At the same time, your eyes will rise toward your forehead to the area between the eyebrows naturally.
It is possible that the tongue will want to touch the roof of your mouth. In this way we’re closing the microcosmic orbit, allowing the energy of the lake, of that inner bliss to build up in your body; to circulate and open your etheric body, your emotional body, your spiritual body, your physical body.
And as we do that, behold that behind the lake we can see that the sun starts to rise; the beautiful golden cosmic self stats to rise behind the lake of bliss, the lake of peace, of inner awareness. And as the sun of inner cosmic self rises, feel the energy rising along with it in your chest. Your solar plexus opens up and fills with light. It’s okay to shine. This is not selfish, this is not egoistic; it’s your natural birth right.
You are created in the image and likeness of God. You are meant to shine. This is who you are. You embrace it not with ego but because it’s a natural state of your being. You are shining. You are amazing. You’re an awesome manifestation of divinity… right here right now.
And as the sun continues to rise, feel that light spreading into your heart area, uplifting you so you feel connected, loved, supported. There’s no other way. There’s only one of us here – and it is every single one of us as well. We love and support each other because we are all reflection on each other. We are all one.
And as the inner sun rises, you may become aware of sensations in the third eye, in the body… feel that energy. Feel the rising sun of your own being.
And as the sun rises and you embrace your own divinity, feel the connection that goes from your crown down to your roots, enveloping you in a golden cocoon of light with purple flecks. You are shielding and loving and protecting but also embracing your inner self. This is who you are.
And so you can project that light out to everything and everyone on your way. Raise that consciousness along with the sun, up through your throat, back into your head into the third eye, out of the crown, up into the stars above you, and out into the universe.
This is your opportunity to shine, to feel amazing, to feel like you matter; that everything you do makes a difference because it does. You are the bringer of the light.
And if sometimes you get overwhelmed with life, with the challenges or with darkness perhaps, go back into that lake because it’s always there. Ask questions, listen to answers and most of all, greet the rising in yourself; the inner cosmic shiny self.
Become aware again of rising above the mist which has now shifted colour and is more golden… up into that space and back to where we were floating with joy.
Gradually become aware of your body… bring yourself slowly back to the head, to the conscious awareness of you sitting on the sofa or the chair; the sense of fabrics or materials around you, underneath you. Imagine yourself rooted down into the reality through your feet but remember that inner glowing sunshine. It’s still shining through your chest, out through your eyes and anyone who will see you will remember not only your light but their light as well.
Thank you for sharing this journey with me and I hope it helps you to feel more at peace, at ease. And if life sends challenges, we do not react. We observe it and then we breathe out from the lake of bliss so that we release our peace rather than absorbing the storm.
Have a beautiful day. Thank you.
