meditation 6

Imagine

like lightning

light

arising

from your coccyx

and passing

in succession

through the psychic centers

of navel

heart

throat

and middle of eyebrows

until reaching

the

top of your head.

Great power

floods

forth.

Notes:

Swami Lakshmanoo and Pandit Dina Nath Muju's 1974 - 1975 version of this verse reads as below and differs from Swamiji's commentary on the verse in Swamiji's Manual for Self-Realization.

Verse 29
Imagine the light arise from your heart and grow subtler and subtler as it reaches your cerebrum. Merge in that. Great power is generated.

For Swamiji's detailed comments on this verse, you will be wise to consult pages 44 – 48 of Swami Lakshmanjoo's Manual of Self Realization, (edited by John Hughes).

To enable his commentary on this scripture to endure down through the ages, Swami Lakshmanjoo left it in two forms:

(i) a series of videos gracing each verse, which over a few years, John Hughes of the Lakshmanjoo Academy recorded, and

(ii) Swami Lakshmanjoo's textual embodiment of the tapes, The Manual for Self-Realization: 112 Meditations of the Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra (edited by John Hughes).

Both are treasures! In each, Swamiji comments on the scripture while responding to questions from his students. Swamiji emphasizes that the video version transmits his teaching with a higher level of fidelity.
