So we're going to explore the feminine receptive qualities of God,

Of source,

Of you today.

As St.

Francis said,

What's looking is what you're looking for.

And no matter what you're looking for,

It's in what's looking.

So let's be aware of what's looking.

So we're going to turn attention back on itself.

This witnessing,

This background,

It's not personal.

It's not your consciousness.

It's pure consciousness.

There,

No matter if thought is here,

No matter if this body is here.

It has always been in the background.

It has always been watching you.

It will always be.

There is a weakness here.

Notice and look for yourself as what's looking and see if it has an edge.

See if you can find a wall where it ends above you or below you or inside the body or outside the body.

Just look at awareness itself.

Notice that it doesn't seem to be contained anywhere.

There might be an idea that it's contained,

But if you look from its eyes,

You'll see it's not.

And then it has endless other qualities.

Whatever it is you're looking for,

It has it in it.

You have it already.

You need only look and explore.

We notice it doesn't have an edge.

Let's notice today its softness,

Its unconditionally loving quality.

Look and see as what's looking,

Is it judgmental?

There may be judgmental thoughts,

But is what's looking at the judgmental thoughts judgmental?

Or is it completely loving and accepting of everything it sees,

Everything that's felt,

Everything that's here?

It is welcoming of everything that's here.

It is actually loving of everything that's here.

So this witnessing,

This what's looking,

Notice that it particularly would like to love you.

There again may be stories here,

But what's looking wants to come closer.

It wants to actually be very,

Very close to have a cuddle with you.

It's a very natural thing.

When you were a little baby,

Awareness,

Witnessing,

Presence came right into your body and everything this body wanted to explore,

It was on board with.

It was unconditionally supportive with.

And that's the natural state.

So you don't have to do anything here.

Nothing at all.

We're just going to bring this awareness to feel the body and to let the body feel the love,

The unconditional support,

The sweetness that's inside of it.

So let's feel your belly.

Feel right underneath your ribcage,

That solar plexus area first.

Just bring awareness there.

This vast,

Soft awareness is like a warm blanket that you're just laying over your belly and laying inside your belly,

Letting the warmth of your own presence penetrate the solar plexus.

No strain,

No effort,

No thought needed.

The mind can't come along here.

It's welcome to be here.

But this is just between you and you.

You as pure,

Unconditional presence that wants to be with this seemingly separate form,

But it is not separate.

Awareness,

Witnessing can go right into that solar plexus.

It can penetrate and warm up that solar plexus.

You can feel the entirety of your solar plexus and then down into the belly now,

Letting everything soften,

Being wrapped,

Like being swaddled by this warm presence.

This unconditionally supportive presence that's looking out of your eyes and listening to me and is always,

Always,

Always loving you.

It is you.

You are looking out of your eyes.

You are pure witnessing.

And you,

Pure witnessing,

Came here to love you as this unique form.

It's as simple as that.

You came here to love you fully,

To love you and then to receive more love.

We simply have not let it in,

But you as a body are surrounded by this love,

You as formless presence.

We're just bringing the two together.

So feeling the belly just warm up as you feel every inch of the belly.

Maybe the belly is a bit tight.

Maybe it's a bit nauseous.

Notice how presence you as a witnessing has just plain presence,

Doesn't care what's going on in the body.

You want to come closer.

You want to go all the way into that nausea,

All the way into that pain or grip in the belly.

Nothing phases you as pure witnessing.

Like a devoted mother,

You will not leave behind any part of you if given the chance.

So here's your chance.

Feel through every part of your belly.

The layers of skin,

The organs themselves,

Back near the spine.

Let the belly just collapse in your presence.

Your body is tired of holding itself up,

So you're letting yourself be held by the bigger you.

So let the belly relax more than it ever has before.

Great.

And then let's really feel the pelvis now.

Feel the back of the pelvis and the tailbone.

Feel the sit bones and feel the width of your hips.

Feel the pubic bone and feel the deep,

Deep,

Deep interior of your pelvis.

That which is looking is so soft and sweet.

It doesn't have any thought in it.

It's just pure presence and it is so loving.

Let it just wash through your whole pelvis.

A warm,

Warm,

Warm hug.

Pure,

Unconditional support.

There is nothing in your body,

There is no thought,

There is no sensation that awareness itself,

Pure presence is afraid of.

It has no problem with anything.

In fact,

It wants to be as close as possible.

It wants to be so,

So close as to completely merge.

So let awareness,

Let presence feel through your whole pelvis.

Like exploring your most precious child.

Feel the insides of your legs connected inside the pelvis.

Feel the thighs,

Feel the inner thighs.

Feel the skin of your upper legs,

The bones,

The flesh,

The muscles.

Feel the skin of your lower back.

Feel the skin of your lower back.

Feel how they're being loved by your presence.

No matter what noise is here,

Pay no attention.

Just feel your body.

Be willing to feel everything here,

Love everything here.

It's all meant to be loved no matter what it is.

Pain,

Shame,

Gut wrench,

Achiness,

Anything.

It's just sensation.

There's no problem with it,

There's no name for it.

It's loved by pure presence,

It's loved by pure witnessing.

It has no problem with any of it.

So feel your legs deeply relax,

The lower legs now,

The knees,

The ankles and the feet.

Let the body surrender and collapse into the arms of this loving that's looking out of your eyes,

This loving that hears my voice.

Awareness itself is pure lovingness,

That's all it is.

Back behind all the thoughts and all the judgments and all the ideas,

There's just pure love.

That's literally who you are.

And you're just loving yourself finally.

It's not a mental act,

It's not an intention or anything like that.

It's just feeling yourself,

Feel your feet.

Feel every little twinge in the feet,

Feel the arches and the toes.

Feel the energy of the feet that goes way beyond the skin.

Let the body feel the presence of you,

Feel the unconditional love that it is swimming in.

You,

Presence,

Witnessing,

Are an endless womb of love.

All you do is love.

You can't help it no matter how much noise is here.

So let your presence,

Just pure witnessing,

Pure presence radiate and soak through your feet and beyond,

Your legs and beyond,

Your belly and pelvis.

Let the belly,

The pelvis,

The legs dissolve and collapse in the womb of witnessing.

We feel separate in the body because of storylines of separation,

But we're not.

So we're letting the body feel the connectedness,

The womb that it's in.

Let the body sense for itself the safety and love that's here.

You,

As pure presence,

Are showing the body,

Yourself,

That it's safe to surrender to it,

To you.

Let's feel the chest,

Feel the lungs and the ribcage,

Feel the heartbeat.

Notice how awareness,

Presence can just go right inside your chest.

It goes right in there.

Go right to the center of your heart.

See how it has no direction.

See how it has no judgment.

It just loves you.

It just wants to be close.

Play with it a little bit.

See if this warm presence can feel your spine in your chest and in front of the spine and the shoulder blades and around the shoulder blades and on the tops of the shoulders and deep inside the collarbone and the base of the throat.

See how it can go all the way in behind the collarbone,

Behind the sternum and then through the collarbone and through the sternum and skin and a foot,

Two feet,

Three feet beyond the chest in the front,

Through the chest again and all the way out the back.

The body is already submerged completely in a sea of loving presence.

That's what makes everything up.

Matter is made of consciousness.

There isn't anything that isn't awake,

That isn't alive and that isn't loving itself.

Feel the whole chest soften with the sweet touch of just being seen.

The body so wants to be seen and held.

It just didn't know it was already being seen and held.

So we have to kind of literally do it.

See and feel your whole chest now.

Let it be held.

Let it be swaddled.

Let the body be like a cup that's receiving all this love that it is literally swimming in.

Feel the arms.

Feel the arms just surrender and collapse and the arms,

The larger arms of what is holding them.

What makes up those arms?

It's pure presence.

What permeates your whole body?

What's permeating your whole chest,

Your arms,

Your torso and way beyond is this loving presence.

It's funny we didn't notice it.

Feel your neck.

Feel the spine in your neck.

Feel the throat.

Feel the muscles of the neck.

Feel it be supple and soft.

Feel it be so tenderly touched,

So loved by you,

By you that just wants to feel into it,

To be with it,

To melt with it.

Feel the back of your neck and up to your brainstem,

The back of your head.

If as you are just sweetly loving yourself like this,

Feeling yourself,

Feeling the body,

If the body wants to move a little bit,

To shake a little bit,

If it just naturally does this,

If it wants to sway or twist or do a backbend or whatever it is,

It's very welcome.

It's totally fine.

The body naturally responds and releases a lot of energy when it's loved like this.

It finally feels safe.

It finally feels that it can deeply relax in the arms of a safe presence.

But that safe presence will always be you.

It starts and ends with you because you are that same presence that anyone else is.

But if you're always looking for it in someone else,

It's not it because it's what's looking.

It begins and ends with you and then everyone else is just an amplification and a bonus and your cup can overflow,

But it's already overflowing.

The very witnessing of you is already overflowing love,

An endless resource.

We're going to open the head out the back,

Open the head now at the very top of the head.

So feel inside your skull,

Feel inside your brain,

And then feel that it's open out the front,

Open out the top,

Open out the back,

Your whole skull and brain and skin on the top of your head,

Open,

Open,

Open.

And then all this feeling,

All this presence,

All this attentiveness,

Let it pour in.

So you really feel your brain,

Feel the middle of your brain,

Feel your skull,

Feel your forehead,

Feel your eyes,

Feel the eyes soften,

Feel the forehead soften,

Feel the brain soften.

Feel the brain soften and open.

You don't have to hold yourself,

You're being held.

You're being held in endless love and so you don't have to hold yourself at all.

The body can so deeply relax because it is being held.

So let your head be held and let it be held all the way inside the head,

Deep behind the eyes and the eye sockets.

Let the face soften,

The cheekbones and the teeth and the tongue and the roof of the mouth and the jaw.

So loved,

So warmly held.

What's looking?

Loves this body so much.

And this body loves to be held,

Loves to be loved.

Let it start to just dissolve in the arms of you.

So let the face just soften so much that you can't tell where it begins and ends.

You can't tell the edges of the body.

Feel the whole head from the inside and then feel beyond the head.

Let the whole head melt.

Let the neck,

The chest,

The belly,

The pelvis,

The legs,

The feet,

The arms,

The hands.

Let them float and dissolve in this enormous,

Endless sea of loving attention.

As the body relaxes more than it ever has,

Let it keep going.

See if you can find any edge to all this vast love,

To this sweetness,

This softness,

This total and complete surrender and receptivity with no rigidity whatsoever,

Only softness.

The whole body's soft.

What's looking itself?

So soft,

So relaxed,

So reclined.

You're completely awake,

Yet completely relaxed,

Completely surrendered.

Any little bit of effort in the body,

Any stronghold,

See if you can surrender to this sweetness,

To this loving,

Endless womb that's holding it,

That the body is submerged in and as.

Let yourself be held and rocked and babied.

Let there be a downward movement,

A gravitational movement toward the earth.

You don't have to hold yourself up.

You don't have to do anything.

No action,

No nothing.

Complete and total surrender.

You'll see you're just held in all this love,

All this attentiveness.

This womb of you,

Of pure presence,

That the body is submerged in,

Has merged with.

Explore it.

Explore how deep it is.

Explore how soft and loving it is.

Explore how completely non-judgmental it is.

If a thought is here,

It's fine.

It's an endless ocean of pure love,

Pure okayness,

Pure love,

Pure joy,

Pure happiness.

Of pure love,

Pure okayness.

There's pain here?

Wonderful.

Come on in.

It's welcome.

There's no fight.

There's no opposition.

Unconditional support for everything that's here.

A dark thought,

A anxious thought,

A grip in your belly,

A pain in your heart,

A restlessness,

Anything.

It's an endless womb,

An endless sweetness.

It doesn't mind anything.

It doesn't mind anything.

It's all got there's so much room.

There's more room and more depth and more support.

So if this body kicks and screams a little bit,

Like a tantruming child,

It's fine.

Look.

Look from awareness.

Look from what's looking.

It's got all the time,

All the patience,

All the supportive warmth,

The biggest arms to hold anything that arises.

Anything that arises.

But stay feeling the vastness,

The warm presence that is endless,

Endless,

Endless,

An endless womb,

An endless ocean of warm attention.

It's always going to be right here.

It's always what's looking.

It's always going to permeate everything.

It's always going to accept everything.

There just might be a story overlay of something else,

But it's not true.

So keep looking at and through what's looking.

Feel yourself as this endless presence.

Feel this womb of you and feel how your body is completely held in it.

And you can expand your awareness to endless,

Endless,

Endless edges.

There's no edge to this womb,

No bottom,

No top.

And your awareness can be more aware of this unique body inside of it.

They're not opposed to each other.

You can be aware of the endlessness of the womb of creation,

Of you.

And you can be aware of this body and much more.

This wide,

Feminine,

Soft,

Accepting,

Endless womb of consciousness will always be here.

Will always be here for you as a body to keep collapsing and surrendering into.

It will always love you,

Even if you try to run from her.

So you might as well just keep surrendering to your very self.

Thank you 🙏

It was perfect !

Another amazing meditation! I didn’t realize how much softness and acceptance I could surrender into within myself. This was a real eye-opener! “I release control/And surrender to the flow/Of Love/That will heal me.” Thank you so much!!
