SAI BABA'S GUIDED LIGHT MEDITATION

This is Sai Baba's Light Meditation, which I have slightly adapted. (Text below)
You will need 15 minutes, some quiet time and a candle.
I hope that you will experience peace and inner joy.
LIGHT MEDITATION Text
Release any tension you may feel in your body by tensing and relaxing your muscles, or by doing a few stretches and then sit comfortably in front of a candle, with your back straight.
Notice your breathing, the gentle cycle of in and out breaths. Over the next 2 minutes, let your breath become more and more relaxed until it is so quiet it makes no sound.
Now look at the candle flame steadily for some time. The flame stands for the source of your higher Self, which bestows peace, love and strength.
Close your eyes and try to feel and see the flame inside you, between your eyebrows. Imagine the light illuminating your forehead.
Then let the flame slide down, illuminating all on its path to the centre of your chest. Imagine there is a lotus flower there, whose petals open out one by one as the Light enters, bathing your feelings with Love.
Then let the ever-burning flame spread its Light to cover your whole upper torso. Feel its presence in this part of your body as it brings vitality and radiance into your physical body and energy system.
Now let the Light move down both your arms and through your hands, clearing any energy blockages.
Then imagine the Light energy coursing through your pelvis, legs and to your feet.
Next become aware of your back, especially your spine, as you visualise the Light spreading along it, bestowing life-giving energy to the nervous system. See your spine full of white Light, strengthened and rejuvenated…
Let this Light now move up your spine to your head. Picture your head covered and imbued in a shining, sparkling radiance. Let yourself smile in joy.
Spend a while letting your whole body rejoice in this luminous Presence, a rejuvenation that brings you peace and exhilaration.
Now imagine the Light spreading out from you to the people in your home…let it encompass others nearby. Envisage the Light illuminating your friends…family…rivals…your neighbourhood…your town…then spreading to your country…all of nature…let the light embrace the whole world as it brings unity, healing and hope…
Let the Light move into the whole universe…we are all in this Light of Being. Stay on in that thrill of witnessing the Light everywhere...see the God you adore in that all-pervasive light; for God is Light and Light is God.
When you feel ready, let yourself slowly come back to seeing the Light around the world…then in your country…your town……your neighbourhood…your house…and then back to your body, sitting here.
You have been strengthened in the power of goodness and revitalised by the universal Light.
You are now one with God’s Light, Love and Power.
