Transcript

This guided practice is an exploration to help you to stay connected to the universe.

The human shuts herself or himself up most of the time because of the phenomenon of thoughts,

Emotions,

Feelings,

But they don't realize that these bind them,

Chain them,

Limit them.

You see when a fish is swimming in the sea,

It is connected to the water and the sea.

There's an aspect of nature that we will explore separately.

Here we are exploring the humans connect to the universe.

Close your eyes and simply just follow whatever I'm saying.

Some part of this will be like a story,

A story of truth.

Just glimpse into it so that you regain that natural sense of connection we have with the universe.

A part of this practice is also to guide you to stay connected to the two dimensions of the universe.

The static silent and the creative manifestation.

To begin our journey,

You may have been doing a lot of activities before this or not,

Either which way.

Come into your body and be with your breath.

Throughout this exercise,

Try and be with your body.

You can even place your palm on one part of your body so that you keep feeling it with the ground of our body.

And if possible,

Being at least here and there with your breath as it is.

We will slowly begin our exploration.

Now,

Bring your awareness to your forehead region.

A little bit above the center of your eyebrows and be very relaxed.

Over effort is not helpful.

Just flowing through what unfolds is a better way.

So become aware of your forehead center.

A little bit above the center of your eyebrows.

Keeping your head relaxed,

Inwardly turn the gaze from the eyebrow center a little bit above.

It can be a few centimeters pointed above your head.

It can be a diagonal upward gaze.

The reason we took this posture is to allow any inner imagery to open up in a natural way.

You don't have to imagine anything.

I'm going to share a simple story of the universe.

You just hear it and keeping your awareness in the eyebrow center pointed diagonally upward.

Whatever imagination,

Images that opens up on its own Visions or colors or sometimes you will just get a felt sense of something.

Whatever opens on its own is good.

You don't have to imagine anything.

Now,

In the beginning,

Right at the beginning And there is no the beginning in the story of the beginning of the universe.

Something was,

Is and will be ever-present.

And it's eternal silence.

There's just the eternal silence that is spread everywhere in the universe.

The earth,

The other planets,

The galaxies,

Whatsoever.

There's just eternal silence.

Be with whatever image or color or experience that opens up for you.

Try and feel from the story.

We come a little bit into a practice.

We'll continue the story soon.

Try and feel the silence that exists all around you.

Even if you are sitting in a place where it's noisy.

If you put your awareness vast and wide and open to the above,

You will recognize a silence.

Now,

We head back to our story.

As this eternal silence is there,

Suddenly,

Out of nowhere,

There is the big bang.

Something explodes into existence,

Into life.

Whatever imagery comes up for you,

The creative burst of manifestation.

You may see some gases.

You may see some colors.

You may see some light.

You may see some star dust.

You may see some joy.

You may feel some force.

That's bursting through the silence into existence.

Feel that nano,

Nano,

Nanosecond.

Intuitively,

We will all have an experience of it,

Including our own birth second.

Deep down,

Not in the conscious,

But deep down,

We will have that experience of union and birth.

The birth second.

Similarly,

Intuitively feel that nano,

Nanosecond.

When something is just coming alive out of that nothingness,

Out of that void,

Out of that silence.

Be with whatever image,

And if some of you are very subtle,

You may hear a sound.

The sound could just feel like a humming going on and on.

Or it could sound like the eternal OM.

Or it could be anything.

Whatever image,

Whatever sound,

Whatever felt sense is coming for you,

Be with that birth second.

That nanosecond of creation.

Slowly extend this into a practice.

Connect to the entire universe as it is now.

But now bring down your awareness From the galaxies to more this earth,

Which is our focus of our work.

Here in the earth,

Connect intuitively to the vastness of the earth.

The very presence vast of the earth.

And you will notice it also has the quiet dimension of silence.

But it also has the creative force That is striving for manifestation.

The creative fire,

The creative Adhi as they say.

Adh Neem The creative fire,

The creative thirst To express something that is embedded inside.

And you see this thirst of creative manifestation and flow everywhere.

Everywhere in this world,

You will find there are many stagnant things.

Old structures,

Cultures,

Habits.

They're all there creating some kind of a stuck muddle.

But through that beneath that there's always something flowing Like a new creation.

Some discovery.

Whatever I'm saying,

Just be with that experience.

Some discovery bursting through one or few humans.

Some intuition landing in.

Some action including the flowering of a flower.

A new task undertaken with a creative intent.

The making of a diagram.

The making of a beautiful dish to eat.

The burst of a new life,

A child born.

The sun that comes up in the morning dawn.

The moon that becomes visible in the evening night.

Everywhere there is something coming to life,

Birthing.

Now bring your attention to you.

You are a tiny dot in this universe.

And being an integral part of the universe Even if you forget the universe Buried in your thoughts,

Problems or your small sense of yourself.

You are always,

Always connected to the universe.

When you are aware of this connection You are charged,

Refreshed,

Rejuvenated all the time.

Two practices to stay connected to the universe.

First,

Connect your body,

Heart,

Mind and being To the eternal silence of the universe.

So for this you have to take your awareness into your body and being And then scan the vastness of the universe with your inner gaze.

With your forehead centre relaxed.

Just connect to the vast universe Until you feel a potent nothingness.

A potent silence.

Connected to your body and being.

I will remain quiet for a minute for you to do this.

And now connect to this pure creative manifestation light and force That is creating this universe every second.

There is nothing static.

Everything is created and then recreated and recreated.

So that they carry a greater life.

A greater resemblance of something extraordinary.

Beautiful.

The quest for truth,

Beauty and perfection.

The quest for joy.

That's part of the creative manifestation.

Bring your awareness within you And you will recognize a lot of old habits and desires.

For example,

You want to sleep.

You want to eat.

You want to make merry.

You want to enjoy.

You want to avoid pain,

Etc.

You want to have a good time.

You want to succeed.

Much of this is the standard formula of life.

Which is a mixture of habits,

Desires,

Ambitions,

Etc.

That's fine.

Be aware of that for a moment.

However,

If you are aware Because all of us have a soul.

It's a soulful existence in the universe and in us.

From time to time,

We have an urge.

A deeper urge.

To read a book.

To learn a new language.

To do something really well.

To explore the depth of something.

It could be music.

It could be art.

It can be a subject.

It could be interacting with a person.

It can be connecting to a higher power.

There's always a deeper fire or an aspiration ingrained in the human psyche.

Connect to yours.

Recognize these different moments.

For example,

The urge to have an ice cream is the basic fabric.

The urge to have a breakthrough in a relationship and experience harmony,

For example,

Is a deeper aspect of creation.

You want to shift the relationship from chaos to harmony.

Recreating creation.

I'll be quiet for a minute.

Go deep and recognize the different deeper aspirations playing out in you for a greater life.

Every time you feel an urge like this,

Remember you are a part of the universe.

You don't have to rely only on your current skills.

If you recognize that this urge,

Deeper urge of fire is an aspect of the universe itself,

You can be sure that you will be guided.

But you have to take your step.

Whenever you feel such a deeper aspiration,

Act on it.

Pursue it.

But don't just stay connected to your small ego.

Stay connected to the universe.

Feel its silence.

Feel its creative flow.

And now you'll be guided by a greater force and a light.

We'll end this exploration now in a minute.

In this minute,

Recognizing the stillness and silence that is present everywhere.

Stay in touch with not just you,

But all the humans,

Plants,

Animals,

All the aspects of existence in the universe.

They're all throbbing.

There is a basic aspect of existence and they're all throbbing with a deeper quest.

Just feel that intuitively.

A deeper quest for truth.

A deeper quest for knowledge.

A deeper quest for strength.

A deeper quest for pure joy.

A deeper quest for love.

And so on and so on.

Whenever you feel it and if you take an effort and move forward to that extent,

You're also contributing to the universe.

We'll stay quiet for a few seconds allowing this exploration to not end,

But to begin eternally in you.

Every day connect to the silence and the creative manifestation of the universe.

Feel the same in you and follow through the deeper urges to be a part of the creative manifestation,

Efforts,

And fulfillment of this universe.

Thank you very much.

Gratitude for joining in this exploration.
