Focus<\/strong><\/div>\n
Welcome. This meditation supports the Stage Seven task of connecting to the infinite silence or divine inside you.\u00a0There is, within you, an infinite silence. You might call it the divine, or God, or Allah, or The Tao or anything else. It is the divine presence within you. Every religion and philosophy (except maybe humanism) includes a concept that the divine is in our hearts, or that we should welcome the divine into ourselves. The reality is that it is already there. Within your finite physical being is what can only be described as an infinite space of sentient silence or divine light. This meditation will support you in connecting to that space.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Posture<\/strong><\/div>\n
Take a moment to get comfortable.\u00a0You can sit or lay down. You will certainly want to close your eyes for this internal and spiritual exploration.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Presence<\/strong><\/div>\n
Take a slow deep breath. Let it out like a sigh of relief. Be at peace. You are here now. Take another slow deep breath, and this time, send it out slowly, consciously, with purpose, all the way.\u00a0Be at peace. You are here now. Pause and repeat these breaths until you feel relaxed and at peace.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Journey<\/strong><\/div>\n
We begin. Scan your body from the top down. Just explore what it feels like inside. Focus consciously on what is happening inside your body.\u00a0Start at the top of your head. What does that feel like? Your ears… Your eyes…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Your neck. Maybe there are some tight muscles, or pain here and there.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Your shoulders. You can move them if it helps you to focus on them. Your arms and hands.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Your lungs, breathing… your heart beating. This is an amazing body.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Your stomach…\u00a0maybe you can feel your recent meal digesting.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Keep you attention here for a while as we pause to prepare. To really connect with the infinite silence, you must come with nothing. After all, it is hard to connect with the nothing, if you show up laden with somethings.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Imagine, now, that all the worries of the day are like backpacks and bags draped around you. Take them off and put them down.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
All the worries, all the roles we play, all the responsibilities and fears and expectations. Put them all down.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Put down this person living this life. Put down this human existence.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Approach the infinite silence as nothing more than your inner true self – the silent observer.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Now we take the final step. Continue scanning down through your belly. When you reach a point in your lower abdomen, notice if you find one particular spot where, when you place your attention on it with curious openness, opens into a seemingly infinite space of silence and compassion and acceptance. This spot is sometimes referred to as the lower dantian.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
If you can connect with and open this infinite space within you, you can imagine sinking into it like you are sinking into a hot tub or hot spring.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Meet this infinite divine space with only your divine soul. It is such a place of peace. There are no expectations here; no attachments, no roles, no responsibilities, no identity, no physical being. Nothing but pure consciousness in the moment.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This is the perfect space to drop in a wish for anything you might want to bring into your life. Think of what you would like to happen in your life. Take the need for it, the desire or want for it, and give over that desire to the infinite divine knowing that if it is in line with your purpose, of course it will be. Drop it in.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Connecting to the infinite silence \/ divine is about understanding that the divine is quite literally within you and you can access it, make requests, and feel its infinite acceptance anytime you like. It is not out there in some nebulous place. The divine is right here, inside you, right now.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Take some time now to enjoy this space and this connection.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Return<\/strong><\/div>\n
When you are ready, bring your awareness back to your surroundings. Notice how you feel. Take this feeling with you and return to it anytime you like.<\/div>\n
