Hello my dear friends.
This is Bhante Sujata.
Tonight.
We meditate with the moon.
Bright.
Peaceful.
And ancient.
Please find a quiet and comfortable place to sit or lie down.
Close your eyes gently.
Take a deep breath in through your nose.
And slowly breathe out through your mouth.
Let your body begin to relax.
Let the earth holds you.
Relax.
.
.
Relax.
.
.
Relax.
Feel your breath.
Moving gently in and out.
With every inhale,
Invite peace.
With every exhale,
Release tension.
Release worries.
Release expectations.
Allow the mind to become still.
Like a calm lake.
And the moonlight.
Notice that even when thoughts ripple,
The depth of the lake stays quite underneath.
Stay with that stillness.
Now in your mind's eye.
See the full moon above you.
Bright.
Peaceful and radiant.
Its light is pure,
Gentle and loving.
See this moon light slowly.
Pouring down over you.
Touching your head.
Your shoulders.
Your heart.
Feeling your whole body.
With calmness and serenity.
Every cell of your being glows with soft silver light.
Feel that you are bathed in blessing.
No separation.
Between you and the moonlight.
The full moon is a time of release.
Ask yourself softly.
What am I holding onto that no longer serves my heart?
May be a thought.
Of fear.
Memory.
A habit.
Whatever eyes Don't judge it.
Don't condemn them.
Just acknowledge it.
With your next exhale.
Imagine the moonlight Helping you.
Let it go.
Like clouds.
Gently drifting away from the sky.
Eat bread.
Clears a little more space.
Each exhale brings more peace.
Now feel your heart becoming lighter.
Imagine the moonlight entering your heart.
Feeling it with love,
Forgiveness and compassion.
Silently repeat three times.
I am Will.
I am happy.
I am peaceful.
I am well.
I am happy.
I am peaceful.
Let this light expand beyond you.
To the ones you love.
To those who are suffering.
To all beings everywhere.
See the whole world glowing in gentle moonlight.
No boundaries.
No enemies.
Just being sharing one sky.
Now take a moment to feel gratitude.
For this bread,
This life.
This moment.
This moon.
Gratitude for the chance to grow.
To love.
To awaken.
Whisper quietly.
May all living beings be well.
May all living beings be happy.
May all living beings be peaceful.
May all living beings free from pain.
May all living beings free from suffering.
Take a deep breath in.
And a long slow breath out.
Gently bring awareness back to your body.
Feel the ground beneath you.
The air around you.
When you are ready,
Softly open your eyes.
Carry this light with you.
Let the full moon remind you.
I AM ALL.
I am loved.
I am enough.
Again.
I am whole.
I am loud.
I am enough.
And always remember my dear friends.
May you be well.
May you be happy.
May you be peaceful.
May you be well.
May you be happy.
May you be peaceful.
May you be well.
May you be happy.
May you be peaceful.
No smile.
You are the moonlight.
Thank you.
