Awaken into purification through nine breaths.

We are going to slowly scan through different experiences day by day and see how everything that happens in each moment is the expression of our pure awareness.

We can experience awareness right now as a spacious and open ocean within which your body rests,

Floating,

Immersed,

Silent,

Still and spacious.

For these next few moments notice what is happening in your body.

Notice any sensations that are present right now.

Raise your right hand and close your right nostril with the ring finger.

Inhale the pure air element as white light through the left nostril all the way down the central channel to your navel.

Hold your breath and cross your hand over to the other side of your nose and close the left nostril with the right ring finger while you exhale through the right nostril,

Imagining that the air and light travel up through the central channel and are released through your nose.

With each exhalation feel as if any obstacles or blockages associated with aversion or anger or irritation are expelled through that channel and dissolve into space.

Do this a second time.

Close your right nostril with the ring finger.

Exhale the pure air element as light through the left nostril,

Filling the central channel all the way down to your navel.

Cross your hand over to the other side of your nose and close the left nostril with the right ring finger while exhaling through the right nostril,

Imagining that the air travels up through the central channel and is released through the nostril.

With each exhalation feel all obstacles associated with aversion are being expelled through the central channel and dissolving into space.

And now the third breath.

Close your right nostril with the ring finger.

Exhale the pure air element as light through the left nostril,

Filling the central channel all the way down to your navel.

Holding your breath,

Cross your hand over to the other side of your nose and close the left nostril with the right ring finger while you exhale through the right nostril,

Imagining that the air and light travels up through the central channel and is released through the right nostril.

With each exhalation you feel all obstacles associated with aversion are expelled through the channel and dissolve into space.

Now change hands and block the left nostril with your left ring finger as you inhale the pure air element through the right nostril.

Pure light fills the channel all the way down to your navel.

Hold your breath and block the right nostril and exhale through the left nostril,

Expelling the air that moves up and out through the left channel and is released.

With each exhalation through this channel,

Any obscurations or obstacles associated with attachment or desire or greed are expelled and dissolve into space.

Again block the left nostril with the left ring finger as you inhale the pure air element through the right nostril.

Pure light fills the central channel down to your navel.

Then block the right nostril and exhale through the left nostril,

Expelling the air that moves up and out through the left channel and is released.

With each exhalation all obscurations associated with attachment are expelled and dissolve into space.

One more time.

Block the left nostril as you inhale the pure air element through the right nostril.

Pure light fills the central channel down to your navel.

Then block the right nostril and exhale through the left nostril,

Expelling the impure air that moves up and out through this left channel and is released into space.

With each exhalation through this channel,

All obscurations associated with any attachments are expelled and dissolve into space.

Now rest both hands and inhale the pure air element as light through both nostrils.

Draw this down to the navel and hold your breath here.

Then as you exhale,

This air moves out through both nostrils and you focus upon the subtle winds moving up through the central channel and out through the top of your head,

Through the crown.

With each exhalation,

Obscurations associated with ignorance,

With any doubt,

With any lack of confidence are expelled through the crown and dissolve into space.

Again,

Inhale the pure air element as light through both nostrils.

As the exhalation moves out through both nostrils,

Focus upon the subtle winds moving up through the central channel and out through the top of the head.

The subtle breath releases through the crown chakra.

With each exhalation,

All obscurations associated with ignorance are expelled through the crown and dissolve into space.

And now for the third time,

Inhale the pure air element as light through both nostrils.

Hold the breath at your navel and then as you exhale and the air moves out through both nostrils,

Focus upon the subtle winds moving up through the central channel and out through the top of your head,

Out through your crown.

The subtle breath releases through the crown chakra.

With each exhalation,

All obstacles associated with any ignorance are expelled through the crown and dissolve into space.

Bring your awareness and attention to the center of the body,

To the space within the channels and rest in open awareness,

Feeling the openness within all the channels of light within your body.

Feel the clarity and openness of the left,

The right and the central channel of light in your body.

Let yourself rest as this clear,

Open,

Spacious,

Boundless awareness that clings to nothing and yet pushes nothing away.

Sense and feel this openness,

This clarity,

This formless,

Luminous awareness so naturally and effortlessly present.

Rest in the felt sense of this open,

All-embracing love and compassionate awareness.
