Welcome,
Dear soul,
To silent witness within soul journey.
Take a soft,
Generous breath in,
And as you exhale,
Feel a gentle settling within you,
As though the earth beneath is rising to hold you,
To steady you,
To witness you in this meditation.
With each breath in,
Let the space around you grow quiet,
Let your inner landscape open.
You are entering a sacred invitation,
A return to the deepest truths inside you,
The ancient awareness that has never left you.
As you breathe slow,
Deep breaths into your heart space,
Hold for a moment,
And release gently.
Let your shoulders melt down,
Your jaw loosen,
Your belly soften.
Feel yourself arriving,
Not into a physical space,
But into the inner field of your own being.
This is the threshold,
The doorway,
The place your soul recognizes instantly.
There is nowhere to go,
Nothing to strive towards,
There is nothing to fix or force.
Just awareness in this present moment,
Just your breath,
Just the presence of you.
Begin to notice what arises within you,
A thought drifting by,
A memory flashing like a spark,
A sensation in your body,
A flutter in the chest,
Perhaps a mood like a cloud passing across the sky of your awareness.
Everything you notice appears to you,
Nothing needs to be changed.
Let the thoughts float away like smoke,
Let sensations ripple and dissolve.
Let feelings pass like the wind through the tall grass.
You are the one who notices,
You are the awareness behind all moment.
Whatever can be observed cannot be you.
No pushing,
No resisting,
Just allowing.
Now gently turn your attention inward,
Not towards what moves,
But towards what is always still.
The silent witness,
The presence behind every thought,
The ancient unchanging awareness that has watched over your life since the beginning.
You cannot look at this presence the way you look at an object.
You can only be it,
Feel its steadiness,
Its openness,
Its calm.
Thoughts rise and fall,
Emotions shift and fade.
But this presence remains untouched,
Like mountains beneath passing weather.
Its nature is stillness,
Its nature is peace,
Its nature is you.
Now just for a moment,
Lay your identity on the earth beside you.
Set down your name,
Your roles,
Your age,
Your story,
Your expectations,
Your becoming,
Let them all rest on the earth.
Now check,
Are you still here?
Yes,
Fully here,
Clear,
Open,
You are unburdened.
You understand now,
There is a you that exists without any story attached.
A you that does not age.
A you that cannot be harmed.
A you that is vast and ancient as the sky above the desert.
This is your original essence,
Your timeless soul,
The sacred I am.
Feel the simple sense of I am.
Not I am this or I am that,
But the pure unshaped beginningness.
Before the mind,
Before thought,
Before identity.
Just the living pulse of existence itself.
Let yourself rest in that.
As though resting inside a great temple.
Notice how spacious it feels.
How free it feels.
How quietly powerful.
There is no effort here,
Just being.
Now let's dissolve into the great space.
Let all the boundaries around you begin to soften.
Like mist dissolving into morning light.
Feel the space around you,
Touching the space within you.
Feel yourself expanding,
Not outward,
But inward,
Into the vastness.
No edges,
No walls,
No separation.
Just one field of awareness.
Alive and luminous.
You are not the passing clouds of emotion or thought.
You are the sky,
The great open sky,
In which everything appears and disappears.
Notice how peaceful it is when nothing is clung to.
Notice how awareness has always been free.
This presence is not something you create.
It is not something you uncover.
You are meeting the truth beneath every truth.
The one who never changes,
Never breaks,
Never leaves.
You are the quiet witness to the dance of life.
You are the awareness the whole world arises in.
This is the invitation within.
This is the remembering.
Stay here for a few soft breaths.
Open,
Spacious,
Effortless.
If it feels right,
Whisper inwardly.
I am here.
I am awareness.
I am free.
Now let these words disappear into the vast silence inside you.
Carry this recognition gently as you move through your life.
Not as a concept,
But as part of the natural truth of your being.
You are the unshakable presence within,
Beneath every storm of life.
You are the stillness behind every movement,
The awareness that is always here.
Whenever you need to return,
Simply pause,
Breathe and remember you are already home.
As you gently rise up from this journey,
May the silent witness within walk with you.
Steady,
Open and forever free.
Blessings,
Dear soul.
Namaste.
