Welcome to this Radiance Sutras meditation.

In this meditation I will be reading Yukti verse 24.

To begin,

Find a comfortable seat or lie down on your back.

Scan your body from the crown of your head all the way to the tips of your toes.

Make any changes that would allow you to feel more comfortable and turn the awareness to the breath.

Feeling the natural flow of breath as it enters and leaves the body.

Feeling the lift of your chest as you inhale and the fall when you exhale.

Take a deep breath in and a deep breath out.

Reflect on the following words.

This body is made of earth and gold,

Sky and stars,

Rivers and oceans,

Masquerading as muscle and bone.

Every substance is here.

Diamonds and silver,

Magical elixirs,

Ambrosia that gives visions,

Herbs that nourish and heal,

The foundation of the planet,

Immortal magnetic iron circulating in the blood.

Every element in you loves the others.

Earth loves rain,

Sky loves sun,

Sun loves the space it shines through,

Space loves everyone equally.

In meditation,

Luxuriate in knowing this deep and simple truth.

Every cell is an organ of sense infused with majesty.

This body is made of earth and gold,

Sky and stars,

Rivers and oceans,

Masquerading as muscle and bone.

Every substance is here.

Diamonds and silver,

Magical elixirs,

Ambrosia that gives visions,

Herbs that nourish and heal,

The foundation of the planet,

Immortal magnetic iron circulating in the blood.

Every element in you loves the others.

Earth loves rain,

Sky loves sun,

Sun loves the space it shines through,

Space loves everyone equally.

In meditation,

Luxuriate in knowing this deep and simple truth.

Every cell is an organ of sense infused with majesty.

This body is made of earth and gold,

Sky and stars,

Rivers and oceans,

Masquerading as muscle and bone.

Every substance is here.

Diamonds and silver,

Magical elixirs,

Ambrosia that gives visions,

Herbs that nourish and heal,

The foundation of the planet,

Immortal magnetic iron circulating in the blood.

Every element in you loves the others.

Earth loves rain,

Sky loves sun,

Sun loves the space it shines through,

Space loves everyone equally.

In meditation,

Luxuriate in knowing this deep and simple truth.

Every cell is an organ of sense infused with majesty.

Connect to your breath and feeling the after effects of those words.

Noticing any physical sensations,

Pulsations,

Slowly returning your awareness back into your physical space,

Opening and closing your eyes,

Creating gentle movement,

Maybe even a full body stretch.

Place your hands over your heart,

Over your lungs.

And let's take a breath together.

Take a deep breath in and a deep breath out.

Again,

A deep breath in and a deep breath out.

And this ends our meditation.
