Transcript
Keep your eyes closed.
Start to observe your breathing.
Feel the ribcage expanding,
Contracting.
Feel the mind connecting to the breath.
Feel the breath enter,
Leave.
Feel stillness and silence growing in the mind.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Continue to connect your consciousness,
Your awareness to your breathing.
Just feel the stillness,
The silence growing in the mind.
Observe the thoughts just drift away as your awareness becomes taken over by the breath.
The thoughts lose their importance and you observe each in-breath,
You observe each out-breath.
You continue to take the awareness of the mind to the breathing.
You breathe in,
You breathe out.
You keep connecting your awareness to your breathing.
The breath enters,
The breath leaves.
The ribcage expands,
The ribcage contracts.
You keep feeling the movement of the ribcage,
Expansion,
Contraction.
You keep feeling stillness growing in the mind.
The breath enters,
The breath leaves.
The thoughts continue to drift away as silence grows from within,
As you focus on the breathing.
You continue to observe the breath,
Observing the silence within.
And as you do,
You become aware of a white light resting deep within your heart.
And from the place of this white light,
You just start to observe.
Observe how everything is changing in the physical world around you,
In your body,
How every cell is constantly being replaced,
How your body is constantly changing.
Observe how there's no permanence in the physical world or in your body and in the mind too.
Just observe the thoughts,
See how they're constantly changing.
Observe that when the thoughts become hardened,
Fixed in a certain way,
They turn into perceptions.
But these perceptions too change as you receive more information.
They too have no permanence.
You cannot identify yourself based on your thoughts,
Your perceptions,
Based on this body,
As all of this is constantly changing.
You observe your dreams,
See how these two are always changing.
According to your current likes and dislikes,
As your likes and dislikes change,
Your dreams change,
So there's no permanence in your dreams.
Your memories too,
As your likes and dislikes change,
The way you remember things change.
The mind actually changes the memory.
If you like someone today,
The way you remember them will be different.
If you dislike them,
The way you remember them will be different again.
So again,
There's no permanence in the memories,
No permanence in the dreams,
In the thoughts,
The perceptions.
You observe them,
You see how they're always changing.
The body too is developing.
It's different now to the body you had as a child.
There's no permanence.
And you observe that when the thoughts enter into the body,
They turn into feelings.
These feelings,
Emotions come and go.
When there's a fearful thought,
A feeling of fear enters the body,
But leaves.
When an angry thought enters the mind,
A feeling of anger will enter the body,
But it never stays,
It leaves.
The same will happen with vibrations of jealousy.
They'll enter and leave.
Sadness,
Guilt will come and go,
But none of these feelings have any permanence.
They're just waves,
They enter,
They leave.
You cannot identify yourself with any of these feelings.
The thoughts that come and go,
The body that's always changing,
The perceptions that change according to your information,
Information that you receive,
And dreams and memories that change according to your likes and dislikes.
You observe how all of these are changing.
Thoughts,
Feelings,
Memories,
Dreams,
The physical body.
There's no permanence in any of these.
You just observe them,
See how they're constantly changing.
And then you ask yourself,
Who's the observer,
The awareness that constantly watches these changes in the thoughts,
The memories,
The dreams,
The emotions,
The physical body?
Who am I?
Who am I that's observing?
And you look back deep into the deepest chamber of your heart.
You see the white light there?
It just observes.
It doesn't react.
It's not affected by the emotions,
The thoughts,
The dreams,
The memories.
The changes in the body,
It just observes without reacting.
It's the awareness,
The consciousness that just is.
This is who you truly are.
The awareness that notices the changes,
The fluctuations,
The vibrations,
The waves that come and go.
You ask,
Who am I?
And you see yourself as this beautiful white light,
Alive deep within the heart.
You see this white light from the heart spreading,
This pure consciousness.
You see yourself as pure light.
You see yourself as this beautiful white light.
You see yourself as love,
Unconditional love.
You observe the changes within the mind.
See how the mind can create anger or fear or other emotions in the body,
Jealousy,
Sadness.
But you observe that these are not you.
You are simply unconditional,
Unlimited love that emanates as white light throughout the heart.
You see the white light within,
Melting the heart,
Melting each and every chamber,
Softening.
You see yourself for who you truly are,
Unlimited,
Unconditional love.
You see that the spark of this white light that was left within you came from the source of all life,
That created all of the love and the life in the universe.
Feel this white light emanating throughout your heart,
Melting,
Softening,
And in this,
You yourself,
A pure unconditional love.
The spark of white light within you was left here by the source of infinite love and light,
Unconditional love and light that started to spread,
Love and light throughout the universe.
You're not the thoughts,
The memories,
The feelings,
Not even the body.
You simply observe these and remain connected to the beautiful golden white light within yourself.
The white light emanates throughout the heart,
Showing you who you truly are.
This unconditional love that exists within,
Observes,
Watches,
But is not affected.
You see and feel yourself,
This beautiful white golden light.
You feel your heart melting more and more,
All of the blockages,
The knots,
The grantees,
Being dissolved,
Softening.
Your heart breathes freer and freer as you start to see and recognise yourself as this unconditional love that exists within.
Every chamber of the heart starts to melt,
Soften.
Tensions created within the heart that have been created by the mind start to dissolve.
You become more and more the observer,
Not reacting to the thoughts,
The feelings,
Not reacting to the mind in any way,
Not reacting to the dreams,
The memories.
All of these change,
Just observing,
Connecting to the love within,
Just observing the changes of the mind,
The fluctuations it produces,
The fluctuations it produces,
Just observing the changes in the body.
And just connected to the source of white light,
Of unconditional love within.
The chambers of the heart start to melt more and more,
Start to soften more and more,
Becoming softer and softer,
Becoming as soft as the clouds themselves.
The light within you looks for all the areas of tension,
Any tension that's been created through reacting to the mind and its thoughts.
These areas of tension soften.
You become free,
Liberated.
The mind loses its control over you as you realise you're not the mind.
You're just an observer of the mind and its changes.
The mind cannot offer you the same unconditional love that the heart can offer you.
The mind does not have the capability for love that the heart has got.
The heart offers unconditional love.
It melts,
Softens,
Loves completely.
The mind just consists of waves that come and go.
But your truth,
Who you truly are,
Is something that exists within the heart.
You see the light within the heart expanding.
You see and feel unconditional love here.
The heart softens,
Melts completely.
Every chamber of the heart melts as you recognise more and more who you are,
The divine light within the heart that recognises the nose,
Only unconditional love.
You observe the mind,
Its fluctuations,
Its changes.
Not affected by it.
Seeing the waves that come and go in the thoughts and the feelings,
But just being detached.
You see yourself as a detached observer beyond.
You feel your heart filled completely.
With white light and love.
You see how the mind is just temporary.
Filled with waves,
Thoughts that come and go.
But like the heart,
Unlike the heart,
It has no permanence.
The only permanence you can ever know lies deep within the heart.
The unconditional love that lives within the heart,
Every chamber of the heart melts,
Softens.
The heart becomes lighter and lighter.
And this is where you truly lie,
In the unconditional love of the heart.
Thoughts,
Feelings,
Memories,
Dreams,
Come and go.
The body constantly changes,
But the only thing that's permanent is the beautiful light that shines in the heart,
That melts,
Softens.
Any tensions within the heart,
The light that just is.
Pure awareness,
Pure consciousness,
Pure bliss,
Pure peace,
Pure unconditional unlimited love.
The heart shines brighter and brighter,
Fills more and more with this light and this love.
You connect to your true self beyond the thoughts,
The mind.
You just see yourself for who you truly are.
The love that exists,
The unlimited unconditional love that exists within the heart,
Just observing all the changes around you,
The world,
The body,
The thoughts,
The feelings,
The memories,
The dreams,
The perceptions,
And remaining connected to the peace within,
The white light within.
Just allow the white light within to expand throughout your body,
Seeing yourself as this white light.
You rub both palms together,
Generate warmth in the palms,
Take the bottoms of the palms over the eyes,
Bring your warmth back into the eyes,
And then you slowly move your hands away,
Slowly opening the eyes.
