Meditate daily on the vastness of God. Attune yourself to the guru’s, or Christ’s, consciousness of infinity. Visualize that presence as a light residing at the very center of your heart, shining with purity. Mentally expand the light until it fills your body. Then visualize it expanding beyond the body, surrounding you with a golden aura. That aura, not your physical form, is your true body.
Go on expanding the light. Visualize it filling the room in which you sit; the countryside; your neighborhood; your nation – all the continents and oceans of Earth. From the center of your expanded awareness in your own heart send rays of pure light and love in blessing to all beings, everywhere!
Release your light, finally, from its earthly confines. See it streaming outward in bliss to embrace the solar system, the Milky Way galaxy – the universe!
Meditate daily on this expansion of pure light and love, until you find your consciousness soaring on wings of inspiration to God. As the Bible says, “My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8,9)
May His consciousness of bliss, light, and love become at last the realization of your own Self!
