Welcome to the One Family Meditation.

The purpose of this beautiful meditation is to help you open your heart,

Expand your awareness into the feeling and the vibration that we are one beautiful spiritual family.

In our world there are so many different divisions,

Different groups,

People not liking each other,

Conflict of opinion.

And at the core of this,

Underneath the heart,

And at the core of this,

Underneath all these conflicts,

There is a lack of love and a lack of belonging,

A lack of feeling that we're all one family.

So in this beautiful meditation we're going to expand our hearts to the deeper awareness that every single human being is a soul,

Is a spiritual being and we are part of one human soul family,

All of us,

Every single one,

Starting with ourselves.

So let's begin with a few beautiful breaths,

As you breathe,

Just opening your heart,

Taking those gentle,

Beautiful,

Deep breaths,

Noticing each breath just allows you to feel a little bit more relaxed and at peace.

And now become aware that you are a spiritual being,

A being of divine light,

Like a shining star,

Behind your eyes.

You are pure consciousness,

Pure light.

The real permanent identity of all of us is just spiritual,

Pure energy,

Non-physical consciousness,

An embodiment of infinite peace.

And you can even remind yourself in your mind,

I am a peaceful soul.

I am an embodiment of peace.

And just notice how it feels to be peaceful,

To be that shining light.

You can let go of the body,

The consciousness of the body,

The limits of the body,

All of the opinions connected to the body and just be that beautiful shining light,

Complete and whole,

And totally free.

And you can remind yourself,

I am a peaceful soul.

And from this awareness,

You can expand your heart and your mind and realize that everyone around you,

All the people in your life,

They're all souls.

Just see everyone,

Just remember your friends and family,

Relatives,

And just bring into your consciousness that really each one of them is a shining,

Sparkling spiritual being like you.

They're eternal,

Immortal.

And just notice how you feel differently towards them as that being that they really are.

And it also means that all the relatives who've died haven't really died at all.

They're still spiritual beings of late.

They're just somewhere else.

So just hold this consciousness,

This attitude that I am a being of constant light and peace.

And everyone I know is that wonderful shining light,

Acting through the physical body.

And now just expanding out even more to all the people you don't know that you might see driving down the road or in the store or on the internet in different countries.

And just notice that you can see the whole world and the whole world in different ways.

And just notice that you can see the whole world on the internet in different countries.

Just hold the vision.

They also are your family,

Your family,

And they're spiritual beings,

Originally supremely pure,

Loving souls,

Each and every one throughout the whole world in all four corners of the earth.

All of them are part of our beautiful spiritual family.

And you can say in your heart,

This is my family,

My family,

It's my family.

Because what belongs to us,

We have love for those things that belong to us.

So just open your heart,

Make it bigger and bigger and bigger so that you can embrace the whole world as my family.

Just notice how it feels that it's one beautiful family,

Everyone belongs to you.

And just imagine if everyone had that consciousness,

That we're one beautiful family of spiritual beings.

Just imagine how the whole world would act significantly differently.

There'll be huge and immediate resolution and transformation of conflicts.

And while it's not our business to change anyone else,

We can have this consciousness so that our corner of the world is filled with unconditional love and a deep feeling of belonging in our heart for everyone.

So you can smile more easily,

You can understand more compassionately and care more deeply.

And if anyone does anything harmful,

The only reason for that is because they are under an external influence,

Clouding their clarity and their consciousness,

And they've forgotten,

They have forgotten that we are one family.

None of these people would do bad things,

Harmful things,

If they remembered that they're all family,

We're all family.

So they're under an influence of deception and darkness,

Temporarily causing all the negativity.

So we can hold that light,

That light of awareness,

So each and every one is a beautiful,

Shining,

Spiritual light,

Part of my family.

And really keep this in your heart,

The word my family.

When you say mine,

It opens your heart and brings that mothering love and that care towards that which belongs to us.

So if you can say everyone is my family,

Then you immediately start to open your heart to everyone.

And a beautiful practice is whenever you go out,

Or even if you're in the house with other people,

Just keep that feeling,

That consciousness,

My family of spiritual beings,

Divine beings.

Wishing you all love and success.

Keep this feeling close to your heart.

And release how you feel and how others respond to you.

Thank you for your beautiful presence.
