DSP: Physical Layer or Annamaya Kosha Meditation
It is time to enter into the meditation.
It is through the navel you are connected to the body. Actually even before birth you receive energy. This energy supports everything through the navel center. You are connected to your mother's navel from your navel. It is the navel where you carry the tension. You are always holding on to the navel.
Now you will just unclutch yourself or relax yourself from the navel, and just witness. Instead of having the feeling constantly you are holding this body or you are carrying this body, you will relax from this idea; you will be pushing this body out for a few moments. Whenever you start thinking about this body you feel that you are continuously connecting the body that you had yesterday, the body that you had one year ago and the body that you had two years ago. You are connecting all of them and seeing all that as the same body.
You are constantly changing, not only according to ancient Vedanta, even according to modern Biology. According to Vedanta, everyday when you go to sleep you die. When you get up early morning, you get up back to life. Even biology says today that you are constantly changing. Now let you be a witness; let you relax from the attachment and being clutched. I'll guide you. After this we shall enter into the next session of prana sarira, pranamaya kosha. We will start analyzing about how we clutch ourselves in the pranamaya kosha and problems related to it.
Now let's enter into the meditation.
Close your eyes, please tie the eye band. If you want you can lie down on your stomach, but don't sleep. Actually this meditation will be powerful if you can lie down. If your navel can touch the ground you can easily relax. It's your choice.
You can easily relax from the body on your stomach. But don't sleep or snore. Actually in that position you can trust the planet earth easily and you can relax from the body. Sitting time you will always have a little fear whether the body will fall or am I sitting straight. In this position you don't have to think about the body at all. Please cover your eyes.
Inhale and exhale as slowly as possible, as deeply as possible.
If you have any pain, pressure or disease, place your awareness, attention in that area. Let you be aware of that space. Otherwise just be aware of the navel center, be aware of your manipuraka.
Let the body relax, let you completely be unclutched. Do not create the shaft; do not create your identity. All your thinking will happen only when you associate yourself with the body. Now, just relax from that very association. Relax from the body and don't even visualize the body as your body. Do not remember your face, just be unclutched. What is your face before birth? Meditate on that face. What is your face before birth, remember only that face not this face. Unclutch yourself from this face, from this body. Completely relax from the body.
Let you be the pure witness. Forget about your body, forget about your face; just be unclutched. Do not connect your experiences with the body, whether it is joy or pain which happened 10 years ago, 9 years ago or yesterday; do not connect all of them and create thoughts; just be in this moment. Just be a witness to this moment, whatever is happening in your body, just be a witness.
Be unclutched and feel the whole body, be alive throughout the body.
You can now sit up. But let you be unclutched. Continue to be unclutched.
Relax. Please try to be silent for next half an hour, so that your inner space will not be disturbed by any thoughts. Try to maintain verbal silence that will help you to go deep in the next level of meditation. The words which you use to speak, if you start using the words now itself to speak, they will be engraved in your inner space, it will be difficult for the next meditation. For next half an hour you can relax, gather here within half an hour. For this next half an hour do not speak. Maintain verbal silence. The next session we will work on the pranamaya kosha.
