We are now starting with the meditation practice.
If your eyes are open,
You can gently close them.
And starting with becoming aware of the body,
Where your awareness goes,
The energy flows.
Become aware of each and every part of your body and let the energy of consciousness and relaxation reach each and every part of your body.
Starting from the head,
First bringing your awareness to the crown of your head and allowing the head to relax,
Allowing the head,
The face muscles to relax.
As you move your awareness down,
Your jaw,
Neck,
Shoulders,
Arms,
Hands,
Relaxing the chest,
Bringing your awareness to your belly,
Relaxing your belly,
Upper back,
Lower back.
Relaxing your pelvis,
Your genitals,
Hips,
Thighs,
Knees,
Calves,
And relaxing your feet.
And now bringing your awareness to your breath and simply noticing the inflow and the outflow of the breath.
And now feel and visualize as if you,
Your body is made of ice,
As if you are a sculpture of ice.
This sculpture of ice represents the ego,
The ego that is solid,
Condensed,
Rigid.
Feel this ego as this sculpture of ice.
Feel the coldness of the ego.
The ego has a tendency to be rigid,
Has a tendency to be immovable,
Fixed,
Attached.
Become aware of this ego,
This solid ice,
This body of ice.
Feel as if the sun is rising above you,
As if you are sitting outside as this sculpture of ice and the heat of the sun is reaching your body of ice.
The light of this sun represents the universal intelligence,
The intelligence that is beyond the ego,
The spirit of the universe,
The Tao.
The sunlight is now gradually melting this ice sculpture that your body is.
The source,
The source consciousness represented by the sun is now melting this ice sculpture,
The ego.
This ice sculpture is gradually becoming water,
Melting.
Feel the ego melting as this universal intelligence penetrates into your being,
As you are becoming more and more of this universal intelligence beyond the ego.
The ego is melting further and further,
10%,
20%.
Feel the ego dissolving,
Feel yourself merging with this light,
This sunlight.
Feel the water flowing through your body,
Down into your legs and into a stream of river that's flowing nearby,
Merging with the river.
Now you are melting further,
50%,
75%,
Almost about to disappear.
The ego is about to disappear,
90%.
And now you have totally melted,
100%.
You have become this water,
Which is now flowing into this river.
Feel yourself merging with the river,
Feel the ego totally dissolving,
And you becoming the river,
Which means that you are merging with a higher intelligence,
With the soul.
And now you are flowing down as this river that is about to merge with the ocean.
Now you have merged with the ocean,
Letting go of even the idea of the soul and just merging with infinite awareness,
Which is the ocean,
Letting go of any ideas of individuality,
Separation,
Division,
And merging with this ocean of universal consciousness,
Of the collective consciousness.
You have now become the ocean.
And simultaneously,
You are the ocean and you are the sun,
And you are the clouds and you are the river.
You have merged with the infinite.
Feel this universal intelligence now flowing.
It is not flowing through you anymore because there is no you.
It just is.
There is just this infinite,
Vast,
Empty intelligence that is beyond space and time.
Just rest in this pure presence for a while pure awareness,
Pure silence,
And then gradually allowing yourself to come back,
Becoming aware of the body once again.
If it feels natural to you,
You can move your hands,
Your feet,
Taking a breath,
This time slightly deeper,
Inhaling.
And as you exhale,
You can gradually open your eyes and in your own time,
You can come out of the practice as this meditation comes to its completion.
