Transcript

Keep your eyes closed.

Start to observe your breath.

Feel the breath as it enters.

Feel the breath as it leaves.

Take your awareness just to the tip of the nose.

Feel the movement of the air.

Just at the nostrils.

As the breath enters.

As the breath leaves.

Feel the air entering down towards the lungs.

Feel the movement in the ribcage.

As the breath enters.

As the breath leaves.

Stillness comes into the mind.

You feel the breath entering.

You feel the breath leaving.

Thoughts start to drift away.

Just the awareness of the breath remains.

You breathe in.

You breathe out.

The ribcage expands.

The ribcage contracts.

Just silence exists within.

Silence starts to grow within.

You continue to watch the flow of the breath.

The movement of the breath.

Into.

Out of the ribcage.

You continue to feel the lungs expanding.

The lungs contracting.

Continue to draw your awareness away from the mind.

Away from the thoughts.

To focus it more and more on the breathing.

You feel how the thoughts naturally lose significance.

As the breath brings you peace.

You breathe in.

You breathe out.

And your connection to the peace within grows.

Your awareness focuses more and more on the breathing.

On the simple act of breathing in.

Breathing out.

You continue to observe the breath.

As you focus on the breathing.

You become aware of the mind.

The thoughts.

The lack of peace that they hold.

The contradictions that enter the mind.

The fast thoughts that enter and leave.

And you compare this with the stillness that exists within the breath.

You feel stillness as you observe the in-breath.

As you observe the out-breath.

You focus your awareness on this stillness.

This stillness continues to grow within.

As you breathe in.

As you breathe out.

You continue to observe your breathing.

This stillness continues to grow in the mind.

You look into the body.

You feel the ribcage expand.

Contract.

You become aware of all the processes happening within the body.

Not just the breathing that happens without you thinking about it.

But the pumping of the heart that happens automatically.

The circulation of the blood around the body.

The body and its immune system.

Constantly warding off infections.

You see each organ working.

You see the body regulating its temperature.

And you see that all of these processes happen without the mind.

You begin to become aware that there's a greater intelligence.

A play inside the body than the mind.

Then you start to look around you at the universe.

You start to observe the greater intelligence.

The divine intelligence in everything.

You see the beauty of a single flower.

You see that to create such magic,

Such beauty.

Can only involve divine intelligence.

In your mind's eye you see a beautiful valley.

You see how each flower is different.

Has its own colours,

Its own petals.

You see how everything in the valley has its own magic.

Its own intelligence.

You see how the plants grow naturally towards the sun.

How they naturally know which nutrients to absorb from the soil.

How they naturally know to take up water.

How the plants that need less water grow naturally in the dry conditions.

The ones that need more water grow naturally in the more moist conditions.

Everything in the universe is made up of a divine order.

There's a deep divine intelligence at play.

You see how animals communicate without using words.

How they instinctively know when to move together.

How they'll move towards the heat,

Away from the heat.

How every insect communicates with other insects of the same species.

How they'll know to move together.

How they build homes.

How the bees naturally come together in their hives.

You see there's a deep divine intelligence at play.

Something deeper than the mind can comprehend.

Something that goes beyond the mind,

Beyond speech.

How the birds naturally know how to fly.

They don't use speech or thought.

And you see how in every animal in the universe,

There's no mind involved.

But the heart beats,

The blood circulates,

The organs function.

All of these things are happening without thought.

There's a deep divine intelligence at play in the order of the universe.

And this divine intelligence can only be comprehended beyond the mind.

As it doesn't involve the mind.

Beyond the mind exists the feeling of unity,

The feeling of oneness.

And this feeling of unity,

This feeling of oneness was created by true love.

It's true love that is the divine intelligence of the universe.

Because true love knows only oneness,

Only unity.

It creates the beauty that is the universe.

The divine intelligence created the stars,

The suns,

The planets.

Everything of beauty that exists.

There is and was no mind involved in the creation.

There's simply a divine intelligence,

A love,

A unity,

A oneness that goes beyond the mind.

You feel how the mind attracts you less and less now.

Because the mind only knows separation,

Division,

Seeing things as being different.

But as you connect to the divine intelligence of the universe,

You see that there only is love.

Unity,

Oneness that connects the universe.

There just is a oneness that exists in the universe.

An intelligence that goes way beyond the mind.

An intelligence that unites,

Connects,

Fills the heart of every being with love.

An intelligence that teaches the plants,

The flowers,

The trees.

An intelligence that exists in all beings,

In all life.

No matter how inanimate,

Even the rocks,

The stones have life inside them.

The divine intelligence of the universe permeates the entire universe.

Binds the entire universe through love.

A love that can only be comprehended beyond the mind.

You see the divine intelligence in every flower,

Every tree.

You see it in the movement of every animal,

In the heartbeat of every bird,

Every animal.

In the smile of every being on the planet.

The same divine intelligence,

The same love.

The love of the source is within every creature,

Every flower,

Every form of life on this planet.

And it's inside you.

You're part of it,

Part of the divine intelligence of the entire universe.

There's no separation between you and the universe around you.

Something beyond the mind controls you,

Controls the universe.

The divine intelligence that's within all beings.

You realize this divine intelligence exists beyond the mind.

And you say goodbye to the mind.

Goodbye to its habits of feeling different,

Not connected.

The only thing that matters is the oneness,

The unity.

The love of the divine intelligence that permeates the entire universe.

There is no you,

No me,

There's just oneness.

A magical energy that permeates everything and everyone.

No you,

No me,

No separation.

These are illusions created by the mind.

There's just the oneness of the magic,

Of the divine intelligence in all beings.

You feel this deep within.

You see this divine intelligence permeating the entire universe.

You trust it,

You know it,

You feel it deep within.

And you see it permeating all beings,

Permeating the entire universe.

You connect to the divine intelligence.

You say goodbye to the mind that sees separation.

You rub both palms together.

You generate warmth in the palms.

You take the bottoms of the palms over the eyes,

Bringing warmth back into the eyes.

Then you slowly move the hands away.

You slowly open the eyes.
