Couple of Meditations

[Guest guest]

Om Namah Shivaya!

 

Pranaams to all.

 

I'd like to share a couple of meditation techniques that you might

find useful:

 

* Visualize Amma's physical form clad in a white sari. From far all

you see is a white cloud - the white cloud of Supreme Consciousness.

Imagine that you enter that white cloud. Once inside you see the white

cloud all around you - above, below, left, right, everywhere you are

surrounded by the white cloud of Supreme Consciousness.

 

Now, as you breathe in imagine that each breath comes from each part

of your body. For example, imagine that the breath that enters your

nostrils comes from your legs and then the next breath from your belly

and then the next breath from your chest and so on. Complete this

round of breaths by traversing all parts of your body.

 

In the next round, when you breathe in from a particular part of the

body imagine that, that part of the body has become or dissolved into

the white cloud. For example when you breathe in from your legs

imagine that the legs have turned in to the white cloud. And breathe

in from that white cloud. Repeat this for each part of the body

imagining that each part has become or dissolved into the white cloud.

 

At the end of this round imagine that even the very nostrils through

which you breathe in has turned in to the white cloud. You feel that

there is nothing or no one to breathe in and out. All that exists is

the white cloud of Supreme Consciousness. This might give you the

feeling that you have merged in Supreme Consciousness or Amma. Enjoy

this bliss as long as you want.

 

You can do this meditation in 1 minute or as slow as you desire.

 

* Like the above technique you can do this meditation any where. As

you breathe in imagine that you are breathing in with Amma and as you

breathe out imagine that you are breathing out with Amma. Repeat this

as long as you want. This could give you the feeling that you are

"entrained" or "in sync" or always connected with Amma.

 

May Amma bless all.
