So settling your body into the chair or the floor wherever you're sitting and just turn your awareness inward towards your breath.
Taking three gentle slow breaths,
Inhaling and exhaling.
Breathing in deeply from your diaphragm up into your lungs and then gently exhale let your body just sink into the chair or the floor and let go.
Doing that a few times just to help yourself relax into this meditation.
Breathing in to your spirit,
Breathing out your ego mind.
Breathing in love and breathing out fear.
Take a moment to feel the body sitting,
Feeling the floor,
The chair underneath you,
The cushion.
Feeling your feet for a moment,
Connecting to your feet,
Connecting to your hands.
Feeling any sensations in the body and just lovingly gently breathe into them and release.
Turning your focus now towards your anchor which is your breath.
Your spirit breathes through the breath moment by moment,
Breath by breath.
Putting a hand at the diaphragm and a hand at your heart.
Just begin breathing in and out naturally,
Connecting to the spirit within your breath,
The spirit within your heart.
Your true self,
Your God self,
Where all is one,
Where all is holy and full of light.
Taking a moment to turn off our thoughts by watching and waiting for the next thought as you watch your mind like you're watching a movie screen.
Giving presence to the mind so the thoughts can dissolve even if just for a moment.
As you watch and wait for the next thought,
Not to see what it will be but to have no thoughts and feel the breath.
It is here you found your spirit.
You found your higher self.
Allowing yourself to be in that space of emptiness where you know the truth.
Breathing in and out of your heart now.
See if you can imagine the breath massaging the heart as you open like a lotus flower the depth of your heart.
And this meditation is called my forgiveness brings the light.
And so as we live in a time where there's judgments and challenges going on and we're struggling with the world as we see it,
Struggling with our brothers or sisters,
Struggling with ourselves,
Judging ourselves,
Our forgiveness brings the light.
And it is the way out of the suffering that we see.
So I invite you to open your heart to just allowing forgiveness to flow in and flow out of you.
The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness.
Breathing in and out of your heart now.
Allow the peace that comes through forgiveness to shine onto the world you see.
So as you have dark thoughts in your mind,
Or you see darkness in the world in the country that you live in,
The judgments that you have,
The events that seem to be a disaster in many ways.
Just allow the Holy Spirit to work through you to be a light in the darkness.
Imagine yourself looking out onto the world with this light of forgiveness,
Shining it on to everyone whom you judge or have opinions about or wish were different.
Imagine that light is coming through your eyes out onto the world you see.
You can lay down your burdens,
You can lay down your judgments,
Your worries.
I am willing to see miracles.
And a miracle is shifting from condemnation out of fear to forgiveness out of love.
Only my condemnation injures me.
Only my own forgiveness sets me free.
My suffering comes from my unforgiving thoughts.
The only road that leads past my suffering is forgiveness.
I hold the answer to my problems in my own eyes,
In my own heart.
There can be no form of suffering that fails to hide an unforgiving thought,
Nor can there be a form of pain forgiveness cannot heal.
So peace enters me as I forgive myself and everyone.
So let's begin with forgiving ourselves.
What do you need to forgive yourself for?
Take a moment and put that in your heart and just breathe in and out of the heart.
And say,
I'm willing to see this differently.
I'm willing to shower myself with love and compassion and acceptance instead of attack.
I let myself be exactly as I am.
And I remember who I really am.
Spirit of God,
Love.
I forgive myself.
I see myself as innocent.
I see myself as innocent because I know I am as God created me.
And there's nothing wrong in that world.
There's nothing wrong in the truth of who I am.
I'm willing to see this differently.
And I bless myself.
And I allow myself to be released of my self judgments,
My self critic,
My self attack.
I let it go.
And I breathe into my heart again.
Feel my power as a spirit as God.
I will not give power and be a victim to my mind that has all these made up stories about how bad I am or wrong I've been.
I let it all go.
And I allow love to be released.
I am truly blessed.
And I love my brothers and sisters who are one with me.
I remember who they really are.
Even those I don't agree with or think are terribly wrong.
For when I attack them,
I proclaim they are limited and not holy.
So I choose to see everyone as innocent.
And when I do that,
I feel the peace of God.
I'm willing to see others differently.
And when I fear others actions,
I come back into my heart into my spirit and know I'm completely safe as the spirit of God.
There's no fear.
It does not exist.
It's a made up concept.
And I choose love instead.
I choose the true reality.
So I breathe in and out of my heart and sit in the truth.
Breathing in and breathing out.
Alright,
Feel the peace of God inside my heart.
I will forgive whom God honors,
Which is everyone.
I will forgive whom God honors,
Which is everyone.
I will sit back and let forgiveness show me what I am.
Let me forgive and be happy.
Let me forgive and be free.
Let me forgive and be loved.
Let me forgive and be loved.
Let me forgive and be loved.
This is the holy instant of my release.
The light has come.
And I bless through my holiness,
The whole world.
And I allow myself to be blessed.
The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness.
Let me forgive and be loved.
Let me forgive and be loved.
