STAGE 2 – MEDITATION PRACTICE: KARMA YOGA
The next series of meditations are a bit more advanced, requiring focus and concentration. Stage 1 sets up a practice by laying the groundwork for learning how to let go of pain and sorrow. Now, as you move on, I offer you a different kind of catharsis, Energy Momentum 1, which is a Tibetan Pulsing meditation that you will find amazing and deeply helpful.
In the three meditations that I offer to you in this series, I have chosen those that I feel are more oriented toward Silence…and the progress that one can make through Silence. One of them was given to me directly by my master and I share it with you now, thirty years later, as a way of extending the gift he gave to me. May you use these with great Wisdom and Love. If you need help with them, please call me…I am here to help.
Meditation 1: Energy Momentum 1
This meditation is what I use at every Retreat, waking at 6 a.m. in the morning to posture the students for the day, spiritually speaking. You will find this Tibetan Pulsing meditation extremely moving and beautiful. It is about rhythmic movement of the body and the breath, synchronizing together and creating a flow of left go that allows the student to release the unconscious anger and fear that lives within, unbeknownst to the conscious mind. I do this meditation three times a week and would not know what to do without it. Again, there is an instructional DVD, you may purchase separately, that will show you how to do this meditation if you have never done it before.
Meditation 2: Heart Vipassana
Heart Vipassana is a very sweet and simple way to learn the art of Silence each and every day of your life. This meditation has instructions and offers you the path to Silence, which is the great power and presence in meditation. After you have done your catharsis meditation, it is a good idea to do Heart Vipassana to deepen your attentions toward the presence of Silence within you. This meditation is simple, concise and highly effective in changing the way you operate the mind and are influenced by its thinking. Within this meditation you will breathe and work out of the Heart chakra, opening up doors to allow this presence and power of Love to blossom within you and, thus, the whole world. This is being of service to humankind in its most transformational way.
Meditation 3: Beloved
My master gave this meditation to me over thirty years ago. I came to him when I was deeply upset and troubled and he offered to me this meditation to practice. The technique that you will learn here has been, and still is, the answer to my worries and concerns. This meditation is about humility and compassion and will lead you to the BELOVED within you – as it has me, all these years. I now share it with you in humble gratitude that it may help you as it has helped me. When combined with the two previous meditations detailed above, it offers a tremendous energy, a synergy for healing of your karma and can be done at night before you sleep to help relieve you of the pressures of the unconscious mind and the damage it has done all day.
Ambient Music: Autumn
Again, I offer to you ambient music. This offering is extremely special as it includes sound effects, such as rain and water, for healing of the unconscious mind. This beautiful ambient music will change your attitude and demeanor during the day. I listen to Autumn all during the year because of the special effect it has on me with its background tones, while I am working, and even sleeping, to keep an even tone within my unconscious mind. You will find this ambient music very helpful in your life and, as you practice your meditations more, this music will come to mean more to you.
