Benevolence

Today will meditate on Benevolence.

Go into your heart centre, the placebetween your breasts at the point of the sternum and 4th rib. This centre is the place where you interpret the world. It is the ssite of Benevolence. Breath in very deeply into this centre several times. Allow the breath to expand into your chest. In an out is comes, expanding and contracting, expanding and contracting. Experience all aspects of your breath in your chest. Allow yourself to feel every single aspect of your breath as it comes and goes, as it moves in and out of your chest, as your diaphragm drops and rises. As your ribs expand and contract. Every single particle of breath as it comes and goes.
Now drop that observation. I want you to concentrate on the heart centre again, all it to begin pulsating, allow it to throb. You will beging to experience a heigthened awareness as you tune into the natural pulse of your body. Continue to observe yourelf at this point. The expansion and contraction, the throbbing and the pulsation.

Have you ever contemplated what it means to be alive. Have you ever experienced your body in this way before. Is there more for you to understand about your body?

For the moment dwell withing this centre of the pulsation. You re neither the beat nor the non-beat. You are in the centre observing tall that is. You are your hert centre.

You might now start to sense that this centre is spinning. That there is a direction to this psin. Allow yourself to experince this spin or rotation. Just go ritht into the centre of it. Allow youreelf to be inside the centre of the spin or roatation. Be with it in all its aspects. You might see a colour assocaitated with this centre or this rotation. Allow that to formin its own way. Allow it to gfrow and expand into all apsects of your being. Rest inside the centre of this.

Now, bring tomind one person who you love without question, without reservation, without any expectation of anything in return. Allow that feeling to expand inside of you. This love is available to us all. If you struggel with this then imagine someone who you could experience this with. Undoncitional love and heart centred connection. Allow thet person, that being, that entitiy to expand inside of you. Allow the feelings and total magnitude of unconditional lvoe and benevolence to expand into your body, out of your body, into the unviers.
Allow the univers to be filled with benevolence and unconditional love. This love is not depenedent on someone else reciprocating, on this love coming back to you in any form.
