Meditation on the Manipura Chakra.
Allow the body and mind to become quiet.
Feel yourself softening into a deep stillness and peace.
Allow the eyes to close.
Take in a few deep breaths and let them out very slowly.
Begin to venture to the Manipura Chakra at the solar plexus.
There,
Awaiting your awareness is a whirling vortex of energy,
Emanating a glowing vibration of yellow reminiscent of the Sun.
This vibration generates outward as the Manipura Chakra.
It connects us to the force of power and our use of it.
Observe the breath as it flows in and out with ease.
Imagine yourself standing on the earth,
Lifting your face toward the Sun.
Stretch your arms and head upward,
Absorbing the fire element into your body and mind.
Allow it to illuminate your entire being with happiness.
Connecting to the fire element,
Your power,
Intellect,
And vitality enhances.
Bowing to that vitality,
Imagine all the greatness you would be able to accomplish in this world.
Through this dynamic force,
You are able to generate energy and vitality.
This allows you to live fully and use the clarity of your intellect to learn and explore,
Accompanied by a high sense of self-esteem.
Feel this dynamic energy attracting happiness.
Welcome the people who support you in your expansion and openness.
Continue to focus your awareness at the Manipura Chakra and notice a warmth radiating both inward and outward.
From this center of power,
The sense of sight develops,
Enabling us to see the beauty and gifts of the physical world.
Allow the vision to conjure up a pleasant sight that evokes a sense of happiness.
It could be the first flower of spring,
A snowfall on a full moon night,
A small child's face on Christmas morning.
Notice a smile lighting your face.
Even if you can't recall the scene exactly,
The thought will kindle happiness.
Being aware as the entire body alights with happiness,
Tingling with that precious feeling.
Both body and mind become infused with golden yellow,
The color of intellect and power.
Allow that vibration and radiance to infuse your entire being.
Now invoke the visual image that allows you to recall an event that has caused you to be angry.
Notice how that feels in your body.
Is it the same soothing feeling as the experience of being loved and respected?
Gently allow the unpleasant invocation of anger to transform.
Gently invite the delight life holds back into your consciousness,
Encircling it with radiant golden light.
Understanding this ability allows you to shift the mind to the pleasurable when unkindness enters into your world.
Bring the awareness back to the solar plexus.
Use the Manipura Chakra as a transmitter of energy powered from the internal sun.
Make a silent affirmation to nurture this chakra and the qualities it holds.
It is honored when we honor our own power and use it benevolently.
We then shower the light of love on everyone.
Namaste.
When I am in the place of love and oneness,
I am empowered and empower others.
Namaste.
