This meditation was taken from our Radiance Sutras discussion on Monday, January 22nd (see Ecstatic Revelations: Radiance Sutras Verse 54). The intention of this practice is to connect us to our life here on the earth, helping us expand the gratitude in our hearts for our physical as well as the energetic aspects of our experiences while reminding us that there is no formula, no way to live that is perfect. We simply go out and experience our lives.

There is no formula. There is no way to live that's perfect. We just experience life. We just go out and we're free. So let's do a little meditation to bring us through this experience, To bring it into our bodies and thoughts. So wherever you are, You can sit upright, You can lay down, Whatever feels good to you. Let's close our eyes and breathe deeply, Feeling this miracle of a body that we live in, Feeling the belly expand as we inhale, Contract as we exhale. So in your mind's eye, I want you to imagine it's a beautiful Sunday afternoon and you're wandering down a peaceful path in the countryside and you begin to walk down a path through some trees. It's just a kind of an open forest but there's birds, The smell of the leaves, Blue sky, The sun warming your face and you're walking along breathing deeply and you've been doing yoga and meditation for a long time. You're aware of your thoughts, You're aware of your traumas, You're aware of your past. You understand how they've limited you and you've gently integrated them into who you are. Not that they control us any longer, They're just part of our story. We're able to be beautifully present as we walk through the woods, Through the trees. We're able to be aware of our breath, Cherishing every moment, Every footfall, Every breath. We feel alive and happy and free and we're coming up to a beautiful small lake and of course there is a bench where the universe allows us to go and sit. So we go and we sit down on the bench. It's the perfect height, It's comfortable. We close our eyes and just think about our own life. We feel so much thankfulness for everything that's happened, For good, For bad. All just experiences. Water flowing down the river and we suddenly become aware of our spiritual body. We realize that all of these experiences are just transient parts of this interesting world that we live in. We almost feel and become aware of this interesting shell that we are inhabiting, That we are blessed to have all these earthly experiences in. But we feel no attachment to them. We're just thankful for all of them and we feel the energy flow effortlessly through us. Past, Present, Future. We remain right here in the moment. Then thoughts start to come in about our current life, This interesting incarnation we've been given. We realize that some things really bother us and we allow that sensation to rise. We feel our blood alive and powerful and we do care and that bothers us and I don't like that. We love the feeling and we allow that anger to rise, Flow through us and then it's released. Then we remember happy moments and it fills us with joy and we allow that joy to flow through us and weirdly it feels very similar to the anger. We just start having memories from our life. Happy, Sad, Painful, Joyful. They all just effortlessly flow through this shell, This being that we are. We are fully here on the earth in this incarnation, Experiencing the emotions that come with being human. Then we open our eyes and we look out over the lake. It's beautifully still. There's birds along the edges and little bugs floating and swimming across the top of the pond. The sun is shining down. As we gaze out at this beauty, We allow all of this beauty to come within us. We feel the still pond in our heart. We feel the singing birds in our mind, In our ears. We feel the Sun and the warmth within us and the spaciousness of the blue sky throughout our whole body. We feel one with all of it. We feel so completely whole. Soon we start to realize that we truly are an extension of God, Creator, Source energy. That our fingers and toes are like antenna of the divine in this world. We feel alive. We feel that electricity flowing through us. Then we close our eyes again. We become aware of the energy system within us, The chakras, The nadis, The energy flows within our body. We imagine ourselves sitting nice and tall, Feeling the chakras lining up from the earth to the heavens. We press our tongue against the upper palate of our mouth and we feel it energetically connect with our third eye the point between our eyebrows. We feel the third eye connect with the crown of our head, The galaxies and the divine beyond all of that. As we feel our tongue press into our third eye, We feel the amrita of life flowing out of that third eye, Out of the crown. We feel this golden fluid flowing down through our body, Down through the chakras, Out to our arms, To our organs, To our hips, To our legs. We feel this divine energy gently flowing with our breath, Through our blood. We have this deep inner smile about getting to live here on earth. Let's take a deep breath in together. Exhale. Let's open our eyes and come back together.
