Welcome to this guided meditation.
Before we begin,
Make sure that your body is comfortable.
Let's take a moment to arrive into the now.
Take three deep slow breaths.
And on the out-breath,
Let go of the day so far.
Let go of the words.
Let go of the faces.
Arrive into this moment.
And become aware of your feet touching the ground.
The air on your face.
And the breath.
Now gently take your attention to any place in the body that might be calling you.
Any place of tension or pain or discomfort.
And allow things to be as they are.
Honor your body by feeling it.
And now gently take your awareness to the area of the heart.
Feel your physical heart.
And feel the subtle energies of the heart.
And allow your heart to open.
Allow your heart to open to grace.
Allow your heart to open to the grace of experiencing the silence of existence.
And now gently take your awareness to the crown of your head.
Feel the crown of your head.
And feel the subtle energies on the crown of the head.
And know that this is the gateway.
The gateway to your highest potential.
The gateway to the all that is.
And step through this gateway now into the peace that passes all human understanding.
Into that great silence.
The silence of the fullness of existence.
The silence of the divine presence.
And if there should be solace in the world,
Then there should be solace in the world.
And if there should be thoughts,
No need to battle or to resist the human mind.
Simply place your attention back onto the silence.
This silence is available to us in every moment.
We can connect with it anywhere at any time.
This silence is available to us in every moment.
This silence is available to us in every moment.
And if you notice any thoughts arising,
Allow yourself to drop through the thoughts,
Using the out-breath to let go into the silence.
This silence is available to us in every moment.
And if you notice any thoughts arising,
Allow yourself to drop through the thoughts,
Using the out-breath to let go into the silence.
And if you are troubled by thinking,
Let's take a few moments to contemplate the nature of thoughts.
Notice the repetitive nature of your thoughts,
How you think the same thoughts over and over.
Notice the compulsive nature of your thoughts,
Your inability to stop thinking.
Notice the story that you tell yourself about yourself,
And notice how it originates in that limited human mind.
And notice that as you drop through into the silence,
You connect with the fullness of existence.
You are so much greater than your mind.
You are so much greater than your mind.
You are so much greater than your mind.
You are so much greater than your mind.
Notice the self-centeredness of your human mind,
And notice how you've allowed yourself to become completely identified with this human mind.
And notice how this limited human mind has stood in the way of you fulfilling your highest potential.
Notice how completely identified with this human mind.
Notice how conflicted your mind is.
Notice your beliefs,
Your values,
Your conditioning,
Your judgments.
And ask yourself,
Can the mind know what truth is?
Notice how this process of inner conflict that takes place at the level of the human mind drains your energy.
How this endless futile chatter makes you so very tired.
Notice the self-centeredness of your thoughts,
The continuous I,
I want,
I should,
I need,
The continuous me,
Me,
Me.
And how this human mind keeps you in separation.
How it cuts you off from the silence of existence.
The lostness of creation,
Your highest potential as a divine human being.
And so once more,
Allow yourself to drop through the mind into the silence of existence,
Into the fullness of the all that is.
And you may notice how every cell of your body is nurtured by the silence.
And so once more,
Allow yourself to drop through the mind into the fullness of the all that is.
And you may notice how your heart continues to open ever more widely.
As it is nurtured and fed by the love that is the very fabric of the silence.
The greater unconditional love that the human mind can never know.
That love that can only be experienced,
Experienced in profound moments of silence.
And notice that as you drop through and let go into the silence,
That the small self dissolves and gives way to a sense of connectedness.
Notice how you have become one with the fullness of creation,
With existence,
With the all that is.
Notice how the silence of existence feeds you on every level of your being.
And so once more,
Allow yourself to drop through the mind into the fullness of the all that is.
And become aware now,
How your lower human mind has surrendered to the greater mind.
The greater mind that lies at the core of existence,
That lies at the core of the fullness of creation.
And become aware of an inductive linkage taking place,
A linkage of the finite human mind to the infinite mind.
And realize that this higher mind will bring you the higher knowing,
The higher understanding,
The higher wisdom.
And experience now how this higher mind,
How this greater intelligence,
Is an intelligence that can be perceived by the heart in conjunction with the mind.
And so as you partake of this silence,
Your whole being is transformed,
And you are able to interact with the world in a new way,
From a higher perspective of oneness.
