Just sitting anywhere, start thinking of yourself as weightless.

Keep your spine straight and your eyes closed. When your spine is straight, you will already start feeling a sense of weightlessness.

How do you make sure your spine is perfectly straight?

Sit straight, and slowly start moving your whole spine backwards and forwards. Sway gently, just a little. At one point, you will find that you are more at ease. Keeping this point as the center, start moving your spine sideways. Suddenly you will experience a position where you feel light, almost weightless. This point is where the center of gravity is least. At this point, your spine is perfectly straight.

Now, start imagining yourself as weightless.

In the beginning it won't be easy. You will keep feeling your weight. But tell yourself that you are weightless; feel the weightlessness. Suddenly, a moment comes when you realize that you are weightless. And that is the truth!

This is not a way of hypnotizing yourself. In fact, all your life you live under the illusion that you have weight. You feel the weight of the body, and imagine it to be your weight. This is the process of de-hypnotizing yourself.

Keep feeling the weightlessness, keep feeling it.

When you are deep in meditation, you break the identification with the body completely. You break the boundary of the body. You have infinite power. You can occupy infinite space. But you have squeezed yourself into the volume of a body! This is the root cause of your pain, your misery, your heaviness. When you recognize this, you automatically feel your own weightlessness.

When you go very deeply into meditation, you can even carry your body with you. Your body is lifted up by the sheer force of your consciousness. It defies gravity and starts rising in the air. This is what is known as levitation. There are many yogis and yoginis who can perform levitation.

To feel weightless is to become free of body and mind. To feel weightless is to become pure consciousness, even for a few moments. This technique is complete relaxation, total rejuvenation.
