There are gardens of flowers, Roses, Yellow, Pink, Red, Purple. Smell their fragrance and see the early morning dew drops on their petals. Nearby the garden there is a fish pond. Gold fish is swimming in and out amongst the water lilies. See their graceful movements. You walk between trees, Beautiful trees. Bare trees and trees with leaves. Wide spreading trees and tall, Sturdy trees. It is a clearing between the trees. In the clearing is a small temple with an aura of light around it. Go to the door. It is cool and dim inside. Inside on the walls there are pictures of the great saints. You sit down on the floor, Close your eyes and become still. A sense of deep peace and harmony envelops you as the sounds outside fade into the distance. See your awareness of meditation inside the temple. Stay there for some time until peace and harmony pervade all of your being. Let the peace and harmony pervade. Let the peace and harmony pervade. Let the peace and harmony pervade.
