Love Meditation/Relationship Meditation

Purpose: To realize your true-authentic Self, the Divine within. There are several benefits to accessing your True Divine nature.

- It allows you to remain centered in the midst of difficult situations eg a quarrel.

- It enables you to draw your strength, energy and wisdom from the Divine within, instead of your partner.

 - It allows you to interact with your partner from the level of his Divine nature within, as opposed to his Ego

- Most of all it reminds you of who you really are - a spiritual being having a human experience. You are not your relationship role/job role/material wealth etc, for when you are stripped all these aspects, only the Divine within remains.

1. Be in a comfortable position and relax. Close your eyes.

2. Withdraw energy mentally from everything around you - not to reject or resist, but to turn your attention inward. You might think of a tortoise withdraws into its shell to detach itself from the outside world, but carrying the experience of the world with it inside its shelter.

3. Create a point of consciousness. Focus on the center of your forehead. Think of this point as a radiant star. This will transmit positive energy, making you feel good about yourself.

4. Affirm the positive energy through the positive thoughts and images about yourself, such as "I am a conscious being," or "I am a peaceful soul."

5. Focus your energy on peace, and let this become the object of your meditation. As you focus, you will give peace life, turning a thought into feeling.

6. Experience this feeling by "watering" it with your full attention. This is the beginning of self-realization through meditation.
