Hi,
I'm Anuj Kotecha and welcome to I Am the Light Within,
A meditation on the soul.
Take a moment now and close your eyes.
Let the breath slow,
Soften,
And settle.
And now,
Let's begin the journey inward.
You are not this body.
You are not its breath.
You are not its blood.
You are something more ancient,
More radiant,
Timeless,
And eternal.
You are the Jeeva,
The eternal,
Un-pierceable,
Indivisible Light Within,
A conscious point,
An atom of pure chaitanya,
Akshara,
And you are seated right now in the heart.
Picture this now,
Within the vast inner world of your chest,
Glowing like a star in the sky of your body,
You sit weightless,
Shining,
Still,
Smaller than a grain of sand,
Yet filled with infinite life.
You are this spark,
Not made of matter,
Yet present in all matter,
Timeless,
Aware,
And filled with the knowing beyond the surface of things.
You see through the eyes of this body,
But you are yourself,
Not the eyes.
You hear through the ears,
But you are not the ears.
You feel,
You move,
You speak through this body,
But you are not it.
You are presence,
Consciousness,
Soul,
A divine witness,
Riding the rhythms of a human life,
And just as a flame can pass from one candle to another,
Your experience continues form to form,
Still this light,
Still this you.
Now imagine you are this same soul,
But in a different body,
A creature with wings,
Or with eyes behind and before,
Or in a body made of wind,
Of light,
Of fire.
No matter the form,
You remain the same,
This shining atom of sentience,
Steady in the heart.
Even if the body changes,
Eyes,
Hands,
Voice,
Even the heart itself,
You remain untouched,
Undamaged,
Unmoved.
You are not what changes,
You are the one who watches change.
You are the one who experiences change.
Take one more breath now,
Into this sacred knowing,
I am the soul,
I am this atom of divine awareness,
I am seated in the heart,
I am eternal,
And from this place of stillness,
You return,
Slowly,
Now,
To the present.
Open your eyes,
Take a deep breath in,
Carry the peace of this truth with you,
Breathe out,
Smile,
And reflect on this reflection of yourself,
Your true self,
The Jeeva,
The experience of this body.
