Welcome everyone to the World Blessings Guided Meditations. Today's guided meditation is on accessing your inner truth. The reason that this is coming, I believe, is at least from my own experience, the kind of thins that I have been dealing with, is sometimes having trouble actually knowing what is my inner truth. My experience of that is related to the larger cosmic energy patterns that seem to be going on... so, the important thing to be able to really deeply connect with what is our inner truth.
There are certain foundational truths within us that are the way to really find what is true for us at any given time. And there are situations in which our inner truth can be covered or can even appear that it might seem like, "Oh yes, this is what I know is the right thing to be doing," but then later we realize, "No, it wasn't, that wasn't exactly it." So there's a learning process that happens of discernment and going deeper into ourselves and who we are and how we find our ways through these very transformational and complicated times that we're living in.
So for this meditation, it's helpful if you can be in a place that is quiet and peaceful and where you have a minimum of an external distractions. Some meditations can be done anywhere, but for this I recommend that you find a place that feels like peaceful, grounding, connecting, something that feels nurturing for you. And this is a meditation that can be done at any time that you may need a little help to find your way back to the deepest knowing that's in your being.
So just take a moment now to become comfortable physically ... that may be sitting, standing, or lying down, whatever way is most helpful for you. I recommend sitting or standing if you can, taking some deep breaths, very gently, allowing your consciousness to come into a place of rest, very gently and without forcing.
What you want is an attitude of acceptance. So, anything else that might be going on in your consciousness that you think shouldn't be there, you meet it with acceptance rather than judgment. For example, if you can't stop thinking about your practical challenges or, what the person next to you is doing, or what your next work obligation is, just letting that be all right. No judgment.
Allowing yourself to accept what is going on inside of you and taking some deep breaths and finding that place of acceptance and turning your consciousness inward, beginning to attend to your breath, noticing your breath, breathing deeply. Allowing your consciousness to begin to sink down, moving into your heart, allowing your body to relax, feeling your feet, allowing yourself to connect with the earth and with all that is around you.
That's it. Just allowing yourself to be present and to be in a space of acceptance, acceptance of whatever you may be feeling or thinking. Allowing yourself to sink deeply into your body, feeling your feet, allowing yourself to relax, and just taking some moments now, just to relax. Breathing in, breathing out, bringing your consciousness down.
And now take your hands, place them over your heart, physically if you can or imagine that if you are physically unable. Take your hands and hold them over your heart and breathe into your heart, breathing into your heart, deeply, relaxing and allowing yourself as you breathe, to breathe this prayer into your heart.
May I know my inner truth.
May all light illuminate what is true for me.
May light illuminate my path, may love illuminate my path.
May I know my inner truth.
May I know what it's true for me.
May I be guided.
May I be guided.
May I know what is true for me.
May I have a deep experience of what I know to be the truth of my inner being.
Allow yourself to experience your own prayer of what you are seeking in your heart and in your being. Asking to be led, asking to be shown what is truth, what is the truth in my being?
Just breathing, being with that prayer, allowing God's light to illuminate your heart, to illuminate the part of you that is deeply connected and One with your soul and your soul's purpose.
Breathing deeply, breathing deeply... and now imagine that this prayer is becoming brighter, like a bright light in your heart. Allow yourself to experience your heart expanding in love and light and truth. And imagine that anything that limits your connection with your heart is falling away in the presence of the bright light that is you.Any illusions, any self doubts, any negativity towards yourself, falling away, releasing, moving down into the earth.
The light, it's getting stronger and brighter and clearer. Now allow yourself to imagine an experience, that your heart is the strongest and brightest part of you. Imagine the light of your heart expanding and becoming brighter and clearer, stronger and more real.
Allowing your heart to be the most real part of you. Stronger than any self doubt, any negativity that you may be carrying, stronger than any outdated mental concepts you might be carrying, breathing, expanding.
May the light of your divine being bless you and keep you.
May the light of your divine being shine brightly upon you.
May you be blessed.
