Candle Meditation

- Place a candle in front of you a foot or so away and focus on the flame.

- As you look at the flame, thoughts will start to float by
thoughts about the candle, the flame, sounds you hear, feelings in your body, memories of the day, the week, the experience of meditation

- When you start to grasp a thought let it go
and simple come back to being aware of the flame of your candle,

- Welcome every thought then gently release it

- Repeat with every thought that enters your mind

- Become aware of your attachment to your thought

- Release and simply be aware of the candle flame

Slowly relax and return to be aware of your surroundings

Quote

know that there are 3 candles
that illuminate every darkness:
truth, nature and knowledge

In many different traditions lighting candles is a sacred action. It expresses more than words can express. It has to do with gratefulness. From time immemorial, people have lit candles in sacred places. Why should cyberspace not be sacred?

Ohh I am offically in love, well as much as you can with an inanimate object.
"Journey to the Wild Divine"
had caught my attention a few months back as it promised to offer a unique interactive experience with your home computer, enabling personal input to create a meditative state.

Well I was pretty skeptical not really sure how that was supposed to work... but curious as ever I had to try.

And I am impressed. This system works on bio-feedback, meaning I actually connect a device to the computer that measures my responses and in turn I am able to manipulate the game. I would not so much call it a game, rather than a complete sensory meditative experience.

Imagine you are sitting in front of your computer screen wearing headphones and a couple of blue measuring sensors attached to your fingers that read your impulses

On the screen is a beautiful temple with a golden gate, beckoning you to enter

However you are only able to open the gate with your mind. You need to focus, to relax, to let go of all external influences and be CALM, totally calm and focussed. Only then will the gate open

Now this is not as easy as it sounds.
Imagine me, sitting there getting calm and calmer, breathing slowly, focussing on my intention. The gate is starting to inch its way forward , still I am calm , calmer - until I am starting to get aware of how calm I am getting exited that I am getting calm (giggle) and swoosh your sensors read your exitement and suddenly I am not so calm anymore...

Through an inner relaxed state you move through the levels, engaging in spiritual awareness activities always maintaining a sense of calm awareness and intention. The whole program appeals to all my senses, stunning visual graphics and really soothing , high quality sound effects are making it a complete experience. I am not irritated by something that does not fit.

I find it excellent for practising my meditation techniques, especially amidst the hustle and bustle of family life. To be able to take a few minutes out, shut off from the surrounding noise and engage in a little mini-retreat for my soul is such a treat. It has been making a real difference, giving me a rejuvenating bursts of "me time" , time to engage my spiritual senses, time to let go.
