An energizing visualization

    All of us have challenges. The causes of our unhappiness are numerous. They seem to be coming from outside, against us. I was personally enriched by the following experience and I'd love you to have it too.

Be in a comfortable position. Relax your body and mind. Let me take you to a place which I know you'll love. You'll come above yourself.

     Allow yourself to grow beyond your physical body. Expand yourself and engulf the area around you. Keep enlarging yourself to include your locality, city, state, country, continent and gradually the entire Earth.

 Look at it. Now you are outside your ego, your identity. Go higher and bigger. See the whole solar system and gradually other solar systems. The heavenly bodies have become tiny for you. Rise, higher. Observe how the galaxies are rotating in an orderly fashion. There is so much beauty, coherence, integrity, harmony, clarity, intent and order in the universe. It is a part of you.

     Imagine yourself as a baby and feel so, including the innocence and the negligible ego.

Now imagine a kid ( you at five years of age), who comes along , takes your hand and leads you higher. The kid is in a superman pose as she is pulled towards something and still, is actively going in that direction and taking you along. The kid is super excited, happy and content. This chips off on you. 

     The child takes you into a yellow globe. Here, as soon as you'll arrive, you'll are in a meditative mode. You'll flow inside this globe. It is full of some material which is nutritious to your soul.

What do you have here that you do not have on Earth? Fullness, peace, pleasure, satisfaction, availability of everything you need, simplicity, joy, fun and every possibility that you want. There is perfection. Here you do not want or desire anything. You can stay here forever. This place is yours. It is your home, a place where you are re-energized, refreshed, re-vitalized and rejuvenated. It will always remain the same.

     Out of curiosity, when you look around, there are other such globes for other people. You desire  more people to have and enjoy these. 

     You can stay there forever, and, you know what kind of lives are possible on Earth. You appreciate the varieties and the opportunities it offers to exercise your  will, desires, etc. This home will always be there for you to come back to. Staying here, you have no desire and no goals, you are in a playful mood. You realize your nature in the absence of ego.

      You come to Earth to play. You know it offers contrasts ( unwanted experiences) but that does not bother you because you also know that you have come to play and about your home. You have nothing to loose and only to gain! So you come back :)

     

     As you come back, you develop your ego and can stand in the way of you realizing your ego-less nature. When you realize this, you can be at your home, sweet home; even on Earth. Being at home is a way of being. If you choose, every place you are at can be your home.
