Lovingly affirm:

"I am immersed in the flame-

The flame of time,

The flame of love,

The flame of life.

The universal fire flows through me."*

The Living God is appearing as you and every seeming thing.

I feel Light(er) when you get this.

And you're getting this.

I Love you,

"Everything exposed to the light itself becomes light" (Ephesians 5:13). In prayer, we merely keep returning the divine gaze and we become its reflection, almost in spite of ourselves (2 Corinthians 3:18). The word prayer has often been trivialized by making it into a way of getting what we want. But I use prayer as the umbrella word for any interior journeys or practices that allow us to experience faith, hope, and love within ourselves. It is not a technique for getting things, a pious exercise that somehow makes God happy, or a requirement for entry into heaven. It is much more like practicing heaven now.

"Live for a few days in the meditation,

"I am immersed in the flame-The flame of time, The flame of love, The flame of life.

The universal fire flows through me."

Step into that fire. wholeheartedly,

Starting with the big toe,

Then, surrendering everywhere.

Only the not-self,

Which doesn't exist anyway,

Burns away.

Attend to this continually And awaken into tranquility.

Your essence is renewed in the flame, For it is flame and knows itself as flame Since the first heartbeat of creation.

Imagine the entire world consumed by flame.

Stay steady, do not waver,

As fire transmutes form into light.

The soul reveals itself."

To itself as Radiance.- the Radiance Sutras

A meditation to help you IMMEDIATELY surrender negative thoughts. It's useful not just during 'formal' meditation, but in every moment you find yourself fearful or worried. You shift from being aware of being 'you', to being aware AS the Christ Light that you truly are. You shift out of your mind, and into the mind that was in Christ. Into the no-mind of the Buddha. How does that mind sound? Is it thinking about your troubles, your past, your future? Or is It silent... steady? How does It feel?

Stay (t)here.

I Love you,

Nik

"People come to me to ask for blessings, they don't understand the knowledge that one is not the body, but the consciousness within, is the blessing."

-Nisargadatta Maharaj

"Having realized that I am with, and yet beyond the world, I became free from all desire and fear. I did not reason out that I should be free, I found myself free, unexpectedly, without the least effort. Spontaneity became a way of life, the real became natural and the natural became real. And above all, infinite affection, love, dark and quiet, radiating in all directions, embracing all, making all interesting and beautiful, significant and auspicious."

-Nisargadatta Maharaj
