Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gye Nyame.
Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gayatri.

We begin helping our self by thinking of You,
concentrating on You, and meditating on You. This is the
spiritual practice we are using to control our mind, purify
our consciousness and return to consciousness of You.
2
This purification process reestablishes us
in our proper spiritual identity. We can begin this Self-
unfolding process by chanting Your Holy names.
3
As the mind becomes increasingly still, we can slowly
release the name and meditate on Silence itself. Gradually,
we can release meditating on Silence, and meditate on You
as the Changeless Witness of the changing frequencies of
Silence.
4
Later we can see You as the Changeless Witness of the space
between the frequencies of Silence. As we meditate further,
we are able, as Awareness, to meditate on the Changeless Self
meditating on Itself meditating on all of this.
5
Lower consciousness is defaced of ignorance by this spiritual
practice of remembering You. Gradually, consciousness
expresses its original position.
6
This indigenous spiritual situation, our original Awareness,
is beyond stress and strain, good and evil, near and beyond,
in and out, and all other dualities. It, Divine Consciousness,
Supreme awareness, is always here.
7
Our House of worship is anywhere there is Silence, and
Silence is always here, even in the midst of noise. Actually,
noise is within this Omnipresent Silence.
8
We can witness Silence and listen to it as our meditation tool.
If for some reason we cannot concentrate nor meditate on
Silence, we can chant orally or silently Your Holy names as
our meditation tool. The goal is to purify our consciousness
via Your association wherever we are or whatever we are
doing.
9
You are the Supreme Intelligence of the universe which
creates, maintains, and annihilates all. We associate
with You, by this practice of calling out Your names, and
meditating on silence from the sixth chakra, this is the area
behind the eyes between the front and back of the head. This
area is also known as the Chidakasa.
10
You are the One, Independent, Divinity pervading and
transcending all. You are beyond thought, yet there can be no
thought without You. Thank You for teaching us how to abide
in the Silence, meditating on the Silence undistractedly.
11
Calling out Your Names is a method of fixing the mind
on You. When doing this, we are purifying
our consciousness and coming into greater harmony with
You and the universe.
12
We know from the evidence of our own consciousness
cleansing process, lower consciousness is cleansed of all
misgivings by fixing the mind on You. This is one way we
transcend the suffering of insatiable desires for sense
gratification.
13
When we have begun seeing Awareness looking out through
everybody, we are returning to where we have always
been: Absolute Awareness, free from the illusion of
dismemberment, of coming and going; rising and falling,
higher and lower; freedom and entanglement, ignorance and
enlightenment.
14
Know Thy Self. Know Thy Self is accomplished by first
to the spiritual platform, seeing the self as spirit
looking out from Infinite Spirit through the Pineal gland.
From the Pineal Gland, intelligence, creativity, and energy
radiates throughout the material body, mind, and intellect.
15
You are Pure Awareness, in and beyond Your vast
and variegated costumes, disguises, and levels of
consciousness. You are beyond the mind and intelligence. In
the body, You are manifesting through the Pineal Gland.
16
From the Pineal Gland, You radiate energy, intelligence, and
creativity throughout the body. There can be no thought
nor imagination without You, the Source of all energy,
known as consciousness in the body.
17
Chanting is one way of associating with You. Association
with You empowers our consciousness to reawaken
to Its original essence: The Most Pure, Oneness in
harmony with the Limitless Freedom of You.
18
Gradually, by the grace of chanting Your Holy Names and
meditating on Silence, we are healed, whole, Pure Awareness
again. Thank You for helping us to purify our consciousness.
To the degree this is done, we fearlessly see awareness looking
out through everybody.
