In our next image we will expand our love and this we will do in a short visualization.
So please find a comfortable position.
Close your eyes gently and relax into your pose.
Scan your body for any points of tension and release those as well as you can.
For a short moment focus on your breath.
Now bring to mind a being that is very dear to your heart.
It could be your Lama or a teacher that you have that you very much love and respect.
It could be a parent,
A partner,
A friend,
A precious child that came into your life or anyone else that you really,
Really love.
Now imagine that being in front of you.
Allow yourself to experience deeply your love for that being,
Your gratitude for the blessing that they have brought to you and for who they are in your life.
As best as you can try to free your love from any selfish concern.
Now combine your beautiful love with the wisdom that understands the emptiness of its three spheres and imagine it all as a small ball of diamond in light right in the center of your heart.
Make that light intense and strong but also gentle and soft.
Like a mighty spring of the sweetest,
Gentlest love right in the center of your heart.
Now begin to expand this ball of light.
See it gradually grow inside you until it fills your ribcage and then it continues to grow and expand throughout the rest of your body.
Your whole body is now completely filled with the gushing light of your love and as the ball of light expands its power becomes even more immense.
The light of your love now pervades and suffuses each and every cell of your body.
Feel how every cell of your body is vibrating with an enormous force of life.
Your love burns away all impurities in your body,
All your mental afflictions and all their effects,
All sickness and suffering and pain are erased by your love as well.
Get in touch with the feeling of a body and mind which only consists of the purest love.
A body and mind completely suffused with light.
The gushing light of your love now pushes against your skin from inside until finally your skin loses its grip and the light is streaming out.
Millions of rays of intense light of love pierce through every pore of your skin.
Your love bursts forth like a mighty river that breaks through the massive dam that was blocking its path for so long.
The old bag of skin no longer defines where you yourself end and the rest of the world starts.
It is your love that defines you now,
The edge of your sphere of light.
Try to feel the sensation of this massive outpour of love from inside.
What kind of sensation is it?
And where do you feel it the most?
As your love is pouring out to the world,
Your heart is filled with incredible joy.
And as your boundary is melting to light,
The excitement is growing inside.
Now try to make the leap and see how all of this can turn into bliss.
Like a huge balloon,
You grow in size to cover the area and people around you with the light of your love.
Their bodies are part of you now.
Feel the growing sense of bliss and excitement as your edge expands even more as you keep sending your love in abundance to this temple and to Diamond Mountain.
You become a huge ball of love that covers Bowie,
Arizona,
The United States,
All of this planet,
The solar system,
This galaxy and every galaxy in existence.
You are an enormous and blazing sphere of intense love that touches all beings.
Fully alive,
You feel the pulse of all the beings at once with nothing to keep you apart.
You are madly in love with each one.
Mentally,
Please tell each one of them,
I love you,
I love you,
I love you.
Allow yourself to completely melt into this sphere of wisdom and love.
Let the separate you dissolve in its fire.
Lost in love,
All you can feel is enormous ecstatic bliss.
Please resolve to keep and to not forget this extraordinary feeling as you take a few moments to bring yourself back to your body here and now.
And now slowly open your eyes.
