Meditation 2

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

Thank You Aum. Thank You Bha. Thank You Gayatri.

1

We meditate on You as the Supreme 

Awareness looking

through this body, everybody, every atom, and subatomic

particle. We meditate on You as that Supreme Awareness

looking out through the most subtle vibratory phenomena,

and the Infinite Stillness of Being.

2

We meditate on You as the Foundation and Source of

all consciousness, health, fulfillment and freedom. Thank

You many times over for teaching us how to meditate on You

and gradually reawaken our dormant, liberating, love for

You.

3

We think of You, we concentrate on You, we meditate

on You as this Peace, this Eternal, Unperturbable, the

Peace that is always here. We meditate on You as within

and beyond everything, including Silence. We meditate on

You as the Supreme Witness of the comings and goings of all.

4

We meditate on You as our Ever Higher Self. We meditate on

You as the One, and Only One, who pervades and transcends

all illusory worlds and are never trapped, entrapped, nor

contaminated by any person, place, thing or circumstance.

Thank You for helping us resurrect ourselves and be free

from sufferings by meditating on You.

5

We think of You, we concentrate on You, we meditate on You as

the One who pervades and transcends all forms, shapes, and

attributes. You are here; watching this, right now. We meditate on

You as the place we are looking from, the place from which we are

seeing this.  

6

We meditate on You as the Source of the light of the suns and

moons throughout the cosmos. We meditate on You, as the

Supreme Witness of all of this; meditating thus, we gradually

regain Supreme Knowledge of Self.

7

As our consciousness is purified by meditating on You, we experience

the self as Eternal Awareness, and You, the All Attractive One without

a second, as Supreme, Eternal, Awareness, the Ultimate Reality,

the Source of self.

8

When we meditate on You, we gradually come to the Silence of

Awareness. Sometimes we might have to use Mantras or breathing

techniques to clear thoughts out of consciousness and bring It

back back to the Crystal Silence of Awareness, beyond Pure

Consciousness, on the way here to Infinite Awareness. 

9

We meditate on You as beyond thoughts,

 the Eternal Witness of Silence. We think 

of You as our Common Consciousness

 and the Universal Awareness of all 

Sentient Beings.

10

We meditate on You as the Supreme Witness of all

thoughts. We meditate on You as within and beyond the

various degrees of suffering, the suffering that is the inherent

nature of the illusory worlds, Maya. 

11

We think of You, we concentrate on You, we meditate on You

as the Source of the light of consciousness and we meditate on You

as the Supreme Witness of Supreme Consciousness. We meditate on

You as the Supreme light of all.

12

We meditate on You as the Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent One,

without a second. There is nothing, no-thing, except You. The only One,

above and far beyond Karma and contamination is You. The One who

pervades and transcends all space, all sorts of rarefied air, fully conscious

in this moment, is You. We meditate on You as the Supreme Witness of

this moment.

13

Thank You for revealing to us how to always think of You.

We think of You, we concentrate on You, we meditate on You

as Supreme Energy, Spirit, or Awareness.

14

We see our self also as energy, spirit, or awareness looking

out through this body. However You, as Supreme Energy,

Spirit, or Awareness, are looking out through every vibration

throughout the Cosmic Manifestations; we meditate on You as

such.

15

Through prayer to You, study about You, sacrifice and service

to You, right association, association with those who are trying

to reach You, and meditation on You, we receive real help now

and at the time of old-age, disease, and/or death.

16

We meditate on You as the Most Holy, the Source of all Morality

and Grace, and the Supreme Absolute. Thank You for teaching us

how to bring forth our love for You. Thank You for showing how

to serve You, how to think of You, and how to meditate on You.

Through this spiritual practice, we love and serve all sentient beings

simply by loving and serving You.

17

Thank You for revealing to us this ancient, path of meditating

on You as Silence and Awareness of Silence. By this spiritual

practice our consciousness transcends Maya and returns to

Its most intelligent, quiet, and serene state.

18

We think of You, we concentrate on You, we meditate on You

as the Most Pure, True, and Sane, the Infinite screen of

Consciousness and Awareness. Absorption in thoughts of

You, concentration and meditation on You, brings gradual,

conscious reunion with You.
