This is a meditation to Kali.
So go ahead and sit or lie down comfortably for this exercise.
Close your eyes and focus on your breath for a few moments until you're calm and centered.
Imagine yourself lying on a beach on a beautiful summer night.
You're completely comfortable,
Very close to the earth,
And the earth is warm.
As you look up into the moonlight and the sky,
You sense a sacred feminine presence in the darkness,
A presence filled with pulsing energy.
As she comes closer,
You recognize the form and the energy of the goddess Kali.
You may envision her body as luminous,
Blue-black,
Full-breasted,
And shining,
Or you may sense her kinesthetically.
As she comes closer,
You find yourself gazing into her eyes,
Which are shining with love.
You sense within her an absolute love and an invitation to freedom.
As you tune into the cosmic energy of Kali,
Let yourself recognize that this sacred feminine presence sees you completely.
She sees you.
She sees your beauty,
Your woundedness,
Your doubts,
Your fears,
Your karmic blocks,
The way you've hurt others.
She sees your mistakes,
Your longings,
And your innate goodness.
She sees everything that's apparent and everything hidden.
She sees you.
She adores you.
She holds you.
She is fierce wisdom incarnate,
The liberating force of grace.
She is freedom itself.
Let your breath connect you to her glowing,
Sacred heart,
To her pulsing,
Utterly free energetic core,
Which is also your own heart.
Know that.
With each inhalation,
You draw in the liberating grace of her presence,
Letting it flow through your body,
Your being.
And with each exhalation,
You allow the sense of whatever within you needs to be released,
To be let go,
In order that she can dissolve it.
Your inhalation and your exhalation are almost like a prayer.
I accept freedom.
I allow whatever can be released into this moment to be released.
Yes,
Breathe in,
Inhale,
And exhale.
Two more times,
Inhale.
This is your longest one.
Hold,
And exhale nice,
Long,
And slow.
You did it.
Praise Kali.
Praise yourself.
See you next time.
Namaste.
