The Two Companions Of Happiness – Peace And Love (A Meditation)
Sit comfortably and relax… Remind yourself of your spiritual form as a soul - a point of subtle light (non-physical light), a sparkling star, situated between the two eyebrows...
Now visualize your star-like form and emerge the feelings of peace looking at this form… experience stability in this inner value of peace, peace is your own treasure... Fully release all your concerns, tensions and worries and allow all of yourself to become deeply peaceful...
Now, feel the vibrations (energy waves) of your peaceful light form radiating outwards into the world... First into your body... then into the room... then into your neighbourhood... and then into the outside world...
Be aware that the vibration of your peaceful form is like a gift... Consciously give this gift of peace with the intention of calming and relieving the peacelessness of others...
As you radiate the power of your peace into the world you do so with great love... As you give the gift of peace, with love, you are aware that you are able to serve others, help others, in this subtle but extremely important way...
This awareness invokes a new sense of meaning in your life and you experience deeper feelings of happiness within your heart... It is a happiness which takes the form of contentment... This contentment of the heart flows through your whole being...
You realize that your happiness does not live alone... True happiness always has with it two of its closest companions... an experience of peace and an intention of pure love…
Our basic spiritual attributes of peace, love and happiness are values that can be compared to the primary colors of the soul. While the soul can experience these values, it is only when they are mixed together (to give different shades) that they emerge though our attitudes and behaviors as virtue. Virtuous thoughts, words and actions restore balance and harmony to our inner life and to our external relationships. |
