Meditation exercise

Recommended Posts

So I don't know where to put this, but it's something I've done before, and it's a reason I find meditation hard.

Thought it might be nice before st patties day

When you want to meditate close your eyes and lay on the ground

Take slow, deep breaths. Count in slow sets of 4, breathing first in through the nose for 4, then out again. Get comfortable, any position is fine, but I find something symmetrical helps.

Keep up the breathing through the whole exercise.

By now, you may notice that your far extremities (toes especially) have gone slightly numb, this is perfect. Try to avoid moving.

Picture yourself sinking into the ground, slowly, starting with your toes. Feel them become numb as they sink into the cold earth. Become one with the ground. Feel the cold sensation creep up your lower leg. You are standing in quicksand, and slowly you are losing the battle. Now your knees are being absorbed below you. The numbness of you becoming part of the earth is creeping ever close to the rest of your body. You could be scared, but it's oddly relaxing. You could swear your legs don't exist. 

Now focus on your fingers. The hungry ground has taken them too. You are being pulled in. 

Has it occurred to you yet? Your hands have gone numb and cold. Not all at once, but over time it has happened as you focused on your fingers. Relax. It's relaxing, unsure of the placement of your extremities.

Has it occurred to you yet? Your forearms begin to have the same sensation. You are relaxing into the ground. While focusing on your arms, the rest of your legs have left too. 

Has it occurred to you yet? You are becoming part of the earth, but that means something. The earth is absorbing you. You are becoming one. You are absorbing the earth. The whole earth!

Your forearms are gone. You can no longer feel their placement. That is because they have not solidified. You are unsure of their limits, because the cold earth is coming into you. Your legs are the same. You are taking the earth into yourself. You have no idea how big you are, but you are growing. 

Your legs are gone too. How deep into the ground are they truly? Your feet could be huge for all you know. Growing steadily bigger as the sensation rests on them. If you focus, you may even be able to feel the vacuum of your body taking in the earth as you "sink" further.

Your biceps and triceps are becoming colder, number, bigger. You are sinking in your quicksand. Your whole arm up to your shoulder is amorphous. It can be as big as you want it to be. Shoulders disintegrate into nothingness so they may return bulbous and wide. 

Are you erect? If so do not touch. Leave it huge, your body has inflated your penis in anticipation. The numbness can sometimes take longer to reach this spot, but it will come before long. The earth is swallowing you in hunger, but your hunger is greater, you are taking it over. The numbness spreads to your dick, it's progress slowed, but it continues up your abs and back, penetrating toy our stomach. Breathe gently through your stomach. You will be fine. obliques sink. The only parts of you above ground, the only ones left above ground, with sensation is your chest, shoulder blades, head, and perhaps still your penis. Allow your penis to embrace the cold, with it comes strength, size, bulk! The earth climbs up you. Your chest becomes infected. Numbness is contagious, and spreads cell to neighbouring cell. You can picture each cell going to the earth, giving it newfound power. It goes so slowly, yet it seems to be so sudden in terms of time. Up your spine the growth approaches. It takes the spine as a path, and spreads through your blood to reach the approaching growth from your shoulders. It crawls up in a slow approach to the only extremity left unchecked. It jumps over your clavicle (collarbone) and builds into your traps.

Take a moment. The sensation will build up here. You have lost sensation on your whole body. You cannot feel it because your mind is not yet grown itself to be able to perceive, not to mention control your developing body. Can you feel it? Can you hear it? Faintly, your muscles are bringing the earth into them. You may begin to feel a part of your body twitch and have sensation return. Relax and allow it to return to what it needs to do. Your mind can feel one part at a time, but if your unexpanded mind focuses on it, it will try to maintain it. Let your body go, it knows what to do.

Your neck may start to feel numb. Allow the numbness passage into your esophagus, your throat, your breath. Let it hit your breath before it reaches your lungs. Breath in the dirt, the stone, the sand. Your body can take sustenance from it now, do not fear. Relax

The cold can travel up your arteries. It will hit your skin and hair first, but will slowly spread to your face. It sneaks over your temples, and your chin. It marches over your eyelids and mouth and converges on the tip of your nose. Eventually even feeling their will blink out.

You are numb all over you, yet still breathing in counts of 4. It should feel like being plunged in cold water, but stronger, deeper. It is more immense, and soon you will be that immense. All the earth, the dirt and ground, the trees, the buildings. All that matter is yours to take. 

When you are finally ready for it, open the final gate. Open your mind, and allow it to go numb. This is slow and may take time, if you are still perceiving time. Allow it to slowly leave you. Think only of your final form, your eventual enormity, and even then don't think hard, allow your mind to drift, for it must go too. Trust your body that it can do the job of absorption for you. The earth had once tried to swallow you but you have retaliated and it will now become you. Feel it soak in. Feel each of your pores, from your topmost hair follicles to bottoms of your feet breathe in the matter. Your lungs take in pure matter, and expel less. You are buried, but only because you want to be. By being encased, you can absorb as much as possible. The sand has taken you, but soon you will take it and emerge, and grow as large as you want.

Here you can imagine how big would you like to be. The sky is literally your limit. Only take in a little if you want to continue to live among the regular people, or soak in the whole planet, becoming the new planet. People can colonise on you as you float through space, or you can absorb them as well (they are made of the same thing you have absorbed up until now) and truly overtake everything.

Maybe someday you will reach another planet...

Stay here as long as you care to grow. 

When you wish to awaken, keep your eyes closed. Wiggle your toes slowly. Allow your mind to remember what it is like to feel them. Your mind has to relearn, and you can't rush it. Move your feet and hands. They must be huge now. Now slowly nudge your legs a little. You can give them warmth again. Feel it rush in to your large new limbs.

For your body, to wake it up, after breathing out, take the deepest, longest breath you have ever taken. Make it at least a count of 8 seconds breath. You may need to arch your back, do so. Breathe into your mouth, lungs, stomach, anything that holds air. Then let it out through your mouth, normal speed. Move your head to either side, and shake. Scrunch your face, and relax it again. 

Finally open your eyes, and see the world before you.

 

Enjoy ;) (Just so you know, I have never made it through all of that)
