Duration: 21 minutes🔗

Practise this meditation in the morning. With sunrise, all living things turn to the sun for energy. Become a part of this great tide.

As soon as you wake up in the morning, you can practise this. Just lying in bed, close your eyes and inhale. As you inhale, imagine golden light pouring into you through your head. The light is pouring into you, right down to your toes. It is flowing out through your toes! Don't think that this is just something you are just imagining. As you imagine, so it happens. The energy actually flows into you.

When you exhale, imagine the opposite. Imagine a great darkness climbing into you from your toes, and traveling up to your head. The darkness escapes through your head.

The golden light is male energy – strengthening and sustaining. The darkness is female energy – calming.

You can also practise this at night, just before going to bed. If you fall asleep doing it, it can be a beautiful experience.

Continue this for two or three months, and you will see great changes in yourself. This technique is great for moving your sex energy (muladhara energy) upwards. Your lower back will feel free of the heaviness that is always there. Your energy moves up to the higher centers.

YANTRA DHYANA

ABOUT THE MEDITATION

When you meditate on any object, an energy cycle is gradually built up between you and that object.

Yantras or energy maps are essentially geometric diagrams that have been etched on metal, wood or paper. The earliest yantras were spontaneously created by spiritual masters at the peak moments of meditation. In the early books on meditation, yantras have been referred to as the diagrammatical representations of the structure of the universe. Just as pyramidical structures are known to absorb and retain energy, yantras also have a specific geometric structure that allows them to store energy for long periods.

When a spiritually evolved person meditates upon the yantra, he transfers healing energy to the yantra. The yantra then acts as a battery that stores this healing energy. When an ailing person meditates upon the same yantra, the energy is transferred to him, and he experiences a glimpse of the spiritual ecstasy that first gave birth to that geometric form.
